Thursday at 10:09 p.m. ET, legendary coach John Calipari will make his 16th appearance in the Sweet Sixteen when the Arkansas Razorbacks face the Texas Tech Red Raiders. The Razorbacks have been banged up this season, but one constant has been guard Johnell Davis. The former FAU Owl has Final Four experience and has been a consistent piece for Arkansas down the stretch.
Davis averaged 11.4 points this season but has totaled 13 or more in four of his last five contests. Here is my favorite prop bet for Davis against Texas Tech tonight.

Johnell Davis 13+ Points (-115)
Davis has hit this mark in 12 of his previous 16 games. Getting Davis to score 13 or more points at -115 on DraftKings Sportsbook is an excellent value play, considering how he has performed lately. Even with Boogie Fland returning, Davis has still been in the top three in field goal attempts in Arkansas’ last two games.
He has performed at a high level in the NCAA tournament during his collegiate career. Davis has scored at least 13 points in six of his previous seven March Madness contests. Davis will match up with Texas Tech guard duo Darrion Williams and Chance McMillian. Although the Red Raiders have won six of their last seven games, they haven’t played another high-major team in the past two weeks.
Davis is at his best when he is hitting shots from all three levels on the court. He has only made more than one three-pointer once in the last four games. If he can get hot from deep like he did against Kansas, Davis should be capable of reaching 13 points.
