Michigan Wolverines vs Kentucky Wildcats 12/4/2022 Picks Predictions Previews

 

The Michigan Wolverines will go against the #19 Kentucky Wildcats in NCAAB action in The O2 Arena, UK, on Sunday, December 4, 2022, at 1:00 PM ET.

 

Michigan started the season well, winning three consecutive matches, including a rout of Pittsburgh 91-60. The Wolverines’ winning run was broken in their subsequent defeat to Arizona State, but they bounced back with victories against Jackson State and Ohio.

 

They battled hard against No. 3 Virginia earlier this week but ultimately fell short by a score of 70–68.

 

Before disintegrating in the second half, Michigan dominated by 11 points at the half, but the Wolverines still had an opportunity to prevail on a 3-point shot at the buzzer. Son of head coach Juwan Howard, rookie guard Jett Howard, saw his potential game-winning shot blocked.

 

Hunter Dickinson, a seasoned big man, leads the Wolverines and averages 19.1 points and 9.1 rebounds per game. He was strong on defense as well, blocking 16 shots so far this year.

 

Michigan will be participating in a match outside of the US for the fifth time. The Wolverines, who are ninth in the nation for fewest turnovers, did a great job managing the ball.

 

  • The Kentucky Wildcats are 5-2 SU in their last 7 matches. 
  • The total went OVER in 8 of Kentucky’s last 11 matches in the Big Ten Conference. 
  • The Kentucky Wildcats are 5-1 SU in their last 6 matches played in December.

Michigan Wolverines vs Kentucky Wildcats Predictions 12/4/2022

 

Kentucky lost a number of games this season, including 88-72 drubbings to Gonzaga and then-No. 2 Michigan State in double overtime.

 

In their other five matches, the Wildcats prevailed against lesser opposition, defeating Howard, Duquesne, South Carolina State, North Florida, and Bellarmine.

 

They are still striving to show themselves against top-tier opponents after winning each of the five games by double digits.

 

Tuesday’s match between Kentucky and Bellarmine was close at the half until Kentucky pulled away for a 60-41 victory.

 

Oscar Tshiebwe, a senior big man who won National Player of the Year honors the previous year, serves as their leader.

 

After skipping the first two games due to a knee ailment, he is producing 14.4 points and 13.4 rebounds per game. The Wildcats, who are rated fourth in KenPom’s ratings, are among the best defensive teams in the nation.

 

  • The Michigan Wolverines are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 matches. 
  • The total went OVER in 12 of Michigan’s last 18 matches. 
  • The Michigan Wolverines are 5-2 SU in their last 7 matches.

Michigan Wolverines vs #19 Kentucky Wildcats. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #19 Kentucky Wildcats.

 

Although Kentucky was captured this week anticipating their game against Bellarmine, anticipate the Wildcats to put on a show against an overrated Michigan squad.

 

Although Dickinson is among the finest players in the nation, the Wolverines’ supporting cast is lacking in talent. Anticipate that this will be a difficult matchup for them because of how poorly they were doing defensively, especially when it comes to forcing turnovers.

 

In addition to having the finest big man in the nation, Kentucky also makes its outside shots. The Wildcats are also top-notch on defense, and because of a few iffy matches early in the season, they are really in the unusual situation of now being underestimated.

 

The #19 Kentucky Wildcats will win to a predicted score of 77-67.
