Top NCAAB Players in Action on Sunday

Here are five of the most explosive players I’m watching during the Round of 32 matchups on Sunday:

Tarris Reed Jr. (UConn Huskies) vs. UCLA Bruins

Ja’Kobi Gillespie (Tennessee Volunteers) vs. Virginia Cavaliers

Labaron Philon Jr. (Alabama Crimson Tide) vs. Texas Tech Red Raiders

Darryn Peterson (Kansas Jayhawks) vs. St. John’s Red Storm

Braden Smith (Purdue Boilermakers) vs. Miami (FL) Hurricanes

Tonight’s March Madness schedule is absolutely loaded with massive storylines and perfect spots for our entries. At the Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, UConn’s Tarris Reed Jr. is coming off a truly historic performance. He dropped a staggering 31 points and 27 rebounds against Furman—video game numbers we haven’t seen in the tournament since 1968. He’s a certified monster in the paint and will be testing a balanced UCLA squad led by Eric Dailey Jr. (20.0 PPG).

Out west in San Diego, Kansas freshman Darryn Peterson is a massive perimeter scoring threat taking on St. John’s. That matchup features serious revenge vibes, as St. John’s big man Zuby Ejiofor looks to prove himself against his former coach, Bill Self.

Down in Tampa, Alabama’s Labaron Philon Jr. is the heart and soul of the Tide right now and will battle Texas Tech’s Jaylen Petty in a fun, up-tempo clash.

Finally, keep an eye on Tennessee’s Ja’Kobi Gillespie after his incredible 29-point, 9-assist takeover in the first round. He’ll face Virginia’s Jacari White, who just saved the Cavaliers with 26 bench points. And don’t sleep on Purdue’s Braden Smith; he just broke the NCAA career assist record and is scoring in bunches as he takes on Miami’s Malik Reneau and the Hurricanes.

Once your account is loaded and your bonus is live, we get to the fun part: handicapping the slate. Underdog gives us two main ways to structure our picks:

Standard Entry: This is where we chase the maximum payout. You combine 2+ picks, but remember, every single leg must hit for your ticket to cash. It’s an all-or-nothing approach when we feel incredibly confident in our reads.

Flex Entry: If you like having a little insurance, build a Flex entry using 3+ picks. With this setup, you can still secure some winnings even if one of your projections falls short. It’s a fantastic way to protect your bankroll while still aiming for a solid return.
