TCU Horned Frogs DFS Spin

Micah Peavy registered two points (1-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 19 minutes during Saturday's 67-61 victory over Texas Tech. Peavy had recently been dealing with a lower-body injury that sidelined him for a Dec. 28 contest, but he was back in action after a 10-day break for the Horned Frogs. The junior wing was clearly out of rhythm, however, going just 1-for-8 from the field. Still, he was productive in other categories, and the Horned Frogs will need him to keep that up if they hope to continue their 10-game winning streak on the road Wednesday at Baylor.

Baylor Bears DFS Spin

LJ Cryer (concussion) is able to practice, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports. Cryer is no longer part of the Bears' concussion protocol. Currently, he has questionable availability before they are scheduled to host TCU on Wednesday.
