(5) Duke vs. (12) Oral Roberts

Leg 1 - Duke -6.5

I love everything that Oral Roberts stands for, but they don’t stand a chance against Duke. The Golden Eagles got a terrible draw.

Duke has held opponents to 30.4% from long range and 46.7% from inside the arc this season. If Oral Roberts starts to miss shots, second chances will be hard to come by. Duke has also held teams to 25.9% offensive rebounds and has done an excellent job limiting fouls. Meanwhile, Oral Roberts has only added 24.5% of offensive rebounds and rarely gets to the foul line.

On the other hand, the Blue Devils usually dominate the offensive glass and have more athleticism than Oral Roberts. The Golden Eagles have also struggled to defend the three, allowing teams to shoot 34.2% from downtown this season.

Duke will get past Oral Roberts.

Leg 2 - Kyle Filipowski Over 16.5 Points

Filipowski won the ACC Freshman of the Year. He scored 15.4 points per game and added nine rebounds, shooting almost 45% from the field.

Filipowski can dominate down low, but he’s also got range. He shot nearly 30% from downtown, which isn’t great. But again, he’s got the range and can turn into a microwave from downtown when he’s hot.

In the ACC Tournament, Filipowski added at least 17 points in each of the three games to help Duke win the Tournament. Duke only scored 59 points against Virginia in the Championship, but he had 20 of them. Duke’s relying on their top-tier freshman.

Leg 3 - Max Abmas Over 21.5 Points

Abmas has averaged nearly 23 points per game since his Sophomore season. He’s already stamped his name in the March Madness history books. But he’s looking for even more this season.

I’m not going to doubt this man. He scored 23 and 26 in the semis and finals of the Summit League Championship. Against Duke, there’s a good chance he’ll get even more shots and volume off. If Oral Roberts wants a chance, it must be Abmas keeping them in the game.

With all the volume, I’d expect Abmas to get 22 points, despite Oral Roberts losing handily.
