Lindenwood @ Little Rock 8:00pm EST

Little Rock’s confidence advantage from their last head-to-head is a key factor — the Trojans already defeated Lindenwood 82-74 on the road earlier this season, proving they can impose their style and handle the Lions’ scoring threats under pressure. In that game Little Rock got balanced scoring with Braxton Bayless and Johnathan Lawson both reaching 20+ points, showing they can spread the offense effectively and not rely on just one scorer. Playing at home tonight amplifies this edge, as Little Rock has been much stronger on their own court — winning a majority of recent home games and defending their paint better than Lindenwood’s defense has managed on the road. Lindenwood, despite having strong individual talents like Jadis Jones, has struggled away from home, evidenced by multiple road losses and a tougher time closing tight games outside St. Charles. Little Rock also tends to control possession and convert points off turnovers more efficiently, a margin that becomes even more pronounced in rematches when teams have already adjusted scouting and execution. The psychological boost from knocking off Lindenwood once — especially in a hostile environment — can’t be understated, as it gives the Trojans belief they can repeat that performance even as underdogs on paper. With better familiarity, crowd support, and proven success against Lindenwood’s schemes, Little Rock is positioned tonight to replicate and build on that earlier win.

Memphis @ UAB 9:00pm EST

Memphis has a clear edge tonight thanks to its athleticism and defensive pressure, which should disrupt UAB’s half-court rhythm and force turnovers early. The Tigers thrive in transition, and UAB has struggled when games speed up, especially against teams that can guard multiple positions. Memphis also holds a rebounding advantage that should limit second-chance points and allow them to control tempo throughout the game. If UAB can’t consistently knock down outside shots, it will be hard for them to keep pace for a full 40 minutes.
