The Bears can really shoot, 38th in shooting percentage, very strong on the defensive glass (41st), and they force opponents into isolation basketball and jump shooting. They’re 2nd nationally in assist to made basket ratio. So it becomes a shooting competition when you face the Bears. Montana has very little size, they don’t play anyone bigger than 6’8” and they live and die with Money Williams. Three 30 point games since mid November, but he’s been off lately, averaging 5 turnovers across his last 6 games. Quinn Denker is back for UNC and he’s a weapon. Dropped 33 on Colorado in a massive upset, I’ll back him here at this price.
