Final Four Picks: West Virginia vs. Duke Frontcourt Breakdown: Basketball is a funny game where some shots don’t always go in when they should. That is why when making our final four picks we like to put an extra emphasis on the big boys in the paint. When the perimeter shooters go cold we want to know which team will be able to hit the glass hard and stuff the rock. Below is an in-depth look at the Duke vs. West Virginia frontcourts to find out which team has the edge.
 

Final Four Picks Analysis: West Virginia’s frontcourt is big, versatile and skilled. The Mountaineers have two elite forwards in Devin Ebanks and De’Sean Butler that are threats at both ends of the floor. Ebanks is the long armed rebounding monster and Butler is a consistent scoring threat. The size and depth doesn’t stop there however with Wellington Smith and Kevin Jones who are both studs. The Mountaineers frontcourt versatility is impressive the way they give perimeter shooters headaches on the outside along with being able to bully opponents down low with their size.

Duke is a good rebounding team that is tenacious. Kyle Singler is also a strong scorer in the paint and there is plenty of depth.  Unfortunately the Blue Devils don’t have much size, strength or experience in the frontcourt. Besides Singler their really isn’t a legit scoring threat. The West Virginia vs. Duke Final Four Odds Total is at 131.0 points.
