Milwaukee vs Indiana College Basketball Betting Preview
Milwaukee Basketball
The Milwaukee Panthers are off to a solid 2-1 start to the new season. After splitting games against Hampton and Wofford in the first week, the Panthers delivered their most impressive result of the early campaign, blitzing Little Rock (KenPom No. 193) by a score of 92-72.
Little Rock is the toughest opponent Milwaukee has played, and the Panthers passed the test with flying colors.
Head coach Bart Lundy has turned Milwaukee into a consistent mid-major threat, winning 20 or more games in all three of his seasons at the helm.
His teams have always graded out well on the offensive boards, placing inside the top 60 nationally in offensive rebounding in each season, headlined by last year when the Panthers ranked third in the entire country in the category.
This year, it's the guard play that's stood out for Milwaukee through three games. Seth Hubbard, Amar Augillard and Stevie Elam are the three leading scorers for the Panthers, and they're the only three players averaging double-digit points per game.
Hubbard, the Western Michigan turned Toledo turned Milwaukee transfer, has been brilliant, averaging 19.3 points per game on 53% shooting from deep. This is one year removed from a season in which he shot just 4-for-39 from 3 in conference play. Hubbard has already doubled that number of makes through three games.
Milwaukee tallied 21 offensive boards in its first showing against Hampton, and while this season's bigs aren't as dynamic as last season's, Lundy's preferred approach of generating second chances should still hold true as the sample size grows.
It'll be interesting to see how the Panthers fare against an Indiana frontcourt that isn't the most imposing.
Indiana Basketball
Vibes couldn't be higher for Darian DeVries through two games. After smashing Alabama A&M in their opener, the Hoosiers trounced Shaka Smart's Marquette defense, becoming the first to hang 100 points on the Golden Eagles in regulation during the Smart era.
Gone are the days of Mike Woodson, and Hoosier fans everywhere can rejoice. Ball movement, spacing, shooting and unselfishness are the pillars, and the early returns are a breath of fresh air. The Hoosiers have assisted on 73% of their makes through two wins, which ranks 11th nationally.
Indiana will likely go as its shooters go on a game-to-game basis, but through two games, that's been a smashing success. Indiana is making 46% of its 3s, good for 18th in the sport one week in.
The highly-touted two-headed monster of Tucker DeVries and Lamar Wilkerson have combined to make 20-of-37 3-point attempts through two games. As impressive as their start has been, that's likely unsustainable as time goes on.
Outside of DeVries and Wilkerson, this roster consists of mid-major scrappy underdog types that aren't as skilled. The rest of the team combined is just 4-for-15 from deep. Tayton Conerway is an elite defender and he should be up for the task of Hubbard on that end.
The Hoosiers' frontcourt is where they project to be vulnerable. Reed Bailey is a skilled offensive-minded big, but one that can struggle with physicality and rebounding. Sam Alexis, the former Florida role player, is the bruiser and will likely play the lion's share of minutes against Milwaukee if Bailey struggles on the glass.
Milwaukee vs. Indiana Betting Analysis
Add it all up, and this feels like a good sell-high spot for Indiana.
While the Hoosiers' start has been nothing short of amazing, Wilkerson and DeVries are due for some shooting regression and the rest of the supporting cast hasn't shown much to be excited about.
Lundy's history of dominant offensive rebounding teams maps well with an Indiana vulnerability.
Take the Panthers to keep this closer than expected.
My Pick: Milwaukee +22 (Play to +20)
