Top 3 Player Props

Player Prop #1: Jedy Edwards (Mount St. Mary’s) / Over Points / 14.5 at -115 / 62% / Edwards averages 15.2 PPG in home games this season with 18% usage rate; Siena’s weakened frontcourt due to Goodrick’s questionable status allows for more rebounding and scoring opportunities, hitting over in 7 of last 10.

Player Prop #2: Manny Santos (Siena) / Under Points / 12.5 at -110 / 65% / Santos held to 9.8 PPG against similar defensive efficiencies, with Mount St. Mary’s ranking top-150 in opponent FG% (44.2%); increased ball distribution amid injuries limits his shots to under 10 per game recently.

Player Prop #3: Xavier Rhodes (Mount St. Mary’s) / Over Assists / 3.5 at -120 / 59% / Rhodes dishes 4.1 APG at home with Siena’s turnover-prone guards (15.3% rate); matchup favors pick-and-roll assists, exceeding line in 6 of 8 home contests this season.

⚖️ Analysis Summary

Public sentiment heavily favors Siena, aligning with money distribution, but sharp indicators via RLM suggest value in fading the visitor due to their injury-depleted lineup and Mount St. Mary’s solid home defense (allowing 68.4 PPG). Following the public on Siena lacks edge given the convergence of metrics favoring a tight, lower-scoring affair. Overall game outlook points to under, as both squads emphasize defense in MAAC play, with combined averages dipping below 140 in 70% of recent matchups.
