🧪 SAL's Synthesis
The Over on Andrej Stojakovic's points looks promising as the expected game features high-scoring dynamics, indicated by the total of 158.5 and the fact that Illinois has struggled defensively against guards. Given Michigan's strong performance and the competitive narrative implied by a close spread of +1.5, it’s likely Stojakovic will get plenty of scoring opportunities. The Net EV of 0.28 reinforces the value in this wager, suggesting the market has underpriced his chances of exceeding 17.5 points.
