## Summary

UConn and Michigan meet on Friday in Boston in a rematch of the national championship game, which Michigan won seven months ago. The No. 4 Huskies are favoured by 5.5 points over the No. 16 Wolverines, with UConn expected to have strong home-region support.

The article’s pick is for Michigan guard Elliot Cadeau to record at least 18 combined points and assists, at odds of -110. After returning for his senior season and winning the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player award, Cadeau has a larger role following several Michigan departures; his three-point accuracy rose to 37.6 per cent last season, from 33.7 per cent.
