Tennessee's Zakai Zeigler total scoring prop bet came in at 15.5 for the NCAA tournament first round game versus Wofford.
Zeigler contributed 19 points (6-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-11 FT), two rebounds, six assists and two steals across 29 minutes during Friday's 83-72 victory over Texas.
From Rotowire:
"Zeigler's 19 points were the most he'd scored since almost a month ago. The point guard did struggle as a facilitator, dishing out six assists (below his average of 7.4) to four turnovers, but his 19 points were a team high and his efficient shooting -- 75 percent from the field -- were instrumental in helping the Volunteers knock off Texas and advance to the SEC Tournament semifinals."
No. 6 Tennessee and Wofford meet in the NCAA Tournament opening round.
The Volunteers have gone 14-7 against SEC opponents, with a 13-0 record in non-conference play. Tennessee is ninth in the SEC with 23.6 defensive rebounds per game led by Igor Milicic Jr. averaging 5.0.
The Terriers are 13-8 in SoCon play. Wofford is fourth in the SoCon allowing 69.8 points while holding opponents to 43.5% shooting.
Tennessee scores 74.7 points per game, 4.9 more points than the 69.8 Wofford gives up. Wofford averages 9.7 made 3-pointers per game this season, 2.6 more made shots on average than the 7.1 per game Tennessee gives up.
