The 2025-26 NCAA Men's College Basketball has a rather light schedule Tuesday, as schools are in holiday mode. Kids are all off campus, or mostly off campus, and therefore the schedule isn't as robust as usual. Still, the show goes off, and the schedule is highlighted by a matchup at the Food City Center in Knoxville between the Louisville Cardinals and Tennessee Volunteers in a ranked battle.
We're here to help provide a trio of picks on select days throughout the week, hopefully helping you get into the black, as we head into the holidays and the New Year. It's never too early to start squirreling away money for March Madness.
College Basketball PrizePicks Picks & Strategy
If you're unfamiliar with how to play, you must simply choose at least two players from any sport and pick more or less based on their projected statistics to win. We'll obviously be exclusively selecting college hoops players, but you can mix and match from various other sports. You can also go with a flex play, meaning you still can have a winning night even if you have one losing selection. Or, you can go big and choose the power play, which pays out higher. However, you must hit all ends to win. Let's get started.

Cameron Boozer, F, Duke 
Boozer and the Blue Devils are set to welcome the Lipscomb Bisons to Cameron. If you've never been, it's an experience, even if Duke isn't a team you necessarily love. It has just a few thousand seats, and no air conditioning or heat. It's old school, with the crowd warming the ambient temperature.
Anyway, Boozer should heat up against Lipscomb, at least early on. It is expected to be a lopsided game. That hasn't been a problem in recent games, as he has double-doubles in cupcake games against Howard and Indiana State, averaging 30.5 points (PPG), 12.0 rebounds (RPG) and 4.5 assists (APG) at home.
Boozer should be limited to 24-28 minutes, but in the time he is on the floor, he is going to abuse a Lipscomb defense allowing 82.0 PPG (298th in the nation), 43.9 percent from the floor (212th) and 34.2 percent on three-pointers (252nd).
CBB PrizePicks Selection: Cameron Boozer, Over 33.5 Pts+Rebs
Finley Bizjack, G, Butler 
The Bulldogs take their shot against the No. 5 UConn Huskies in a Big East battle at PeoplesBank Arena in Hartford, formerly named the XL Center and Hartford Civic Center, home of the NHL's Whalers.
When Butler gets to the Nutmeg State, it will have to negotiate a UConn defense which allows 68.1 PPG. In addition, the Huskies have allowed teams to hit just 37.9 percent from the field (17th), and just 27.1 percent from behind the arc (15th).
Bizjack is coming off a 26-point performance against Providence in a double-overtime thriller, and while he was all about scoring, he had just two rebounds and no assists in 44 minutes. In the past six games, he has only 2.0 APG and 1.8 RPG in the span. If his scoring is off, and it is expected to be Tuesday, he is a good target to go low on his projections.
CBB PrizePicks Selection: Finley Bizjack, Less 20.5 Pts+Rebs+Asts

Myron Amey, G, Loyola Marymount 
The Lions meet one of last season's NCAA Tournament Cinderellas, UC San Diego, at Gersten Pavilion in Los Angeles at 11:30 p.m. ET on ESPN+.
The Tritons have allowed 71.6 PPG, 42.2 percent from the field and 32.9 percent from behind the three-point line. Despite the fact UC San Diego has been very giving, Amey is a bit of a one-track player.
Amey has hit double-digit point totals in three in a row, and nine of the past 10 games. However, while averaging 14.9 PPG, 4.0 RPG and 2.2 APG, he has tailed off lately. He has hit 33.3 percent from the field in three of the past four games, averaging just 11.0 PPG. We're going go low on his PRA total, as it's quite high for his production lately.
