WAGNER SEAHAWKS @ MIA

Miami's size is a central matchup advantage

Miami's reported starting group includes Somtochukwu Cyril, Malik Reneau, Shelton Henderson and Caleb Gaskins around Acaden Lewis at point guard; @Sam_Vecenie questioned Henderson at the 2 and Gaskins at the 3 alongside post players Reneau and Cyril. That frontcourt size could pressure Wagner's interior defense and create rebounding challenges.

Lewis arrives after a strong opener

Acaden Lewis scored 24 points in Miami's loss to Florida, providing an established perimeter scoring threat for the home opener.

Wagner needs a shooting response

The Seahawks shot 30.4% from the field and made 3 of 15 three-pointers against Boston College; Cam Estevez went 0-for-6 from deep and is one listed option to improve their perimeter production.

Miami has a key guard unavailable

Covers lists L.J. Cason as out for the season with a torn ACL; the available report lists no other injuries for either team.

Pick Ideas

Angles drawn from the matchup analysis above and refreshed as the news changes. They are a separate read from the LineCrush pick for this matchup, so the two can land on different sides.

Consider Wagner plus the points

Wagner +33.5 is worth considering after the Seahawks were within 12 points with 10 minutes left against Boston College before the game got away late.

A modest lean to the over

The over 147.5 is a modest lean against Dimers' projected 60-89 score, which totals 149 points.
