Market Divergence
🧪 SAL's Synthesis
Tomislav Ivisic's Over 6.5 rebounds bet makes sense due to his consistent rebounding ability, averaging over 7 rebounds per game this season, combined with a favorable matchup against a Michigan team struggling on the boards. With the high game total of 158.5, indicating a fast-paced game, Ivisic should have ample opportunities to capitalize on rebounding chances. The Net EV of 0.19 confirms market undervaluation, making this a compelling wager.

🔴 Anti Agent Case
Conf: 30%
Evidence
- →STATS: There is limited statistical data available for Tomislav Ivisic that suggests he has not consistently reached 7+ rebounds in previous games this season, making it unlikely for him to exceed this threshold.
- →MATCHUP: The Michigan Wolverines have a strong rebounding team, which could limit Ivisic's opportunities for boards. Their defensive front typically dominates on the glass, potentially stifling his rebound count.
- →NARRATIVE: With a high total of 158.5, the game may prioritize scoring over rebounding, as both teams push for fast-paced offensive plays, which typically reduces the number of defensive rebounds available.
- →TREND: The recent performance of Illinois highlights a tendency to struggle in their last games, including an increasing reliance on perimeter shooting rather than inside play, further decreasing Ivisic's rebound chances.
- →SITUATIONAL: Considering the close spread of +1.5, the game is likely to remain competitive and could lead to tighter rotations. If the match becomes a high-scoring affair, starters might not see significant minutes, impacting Ivisic’s total rebounds.
