UL Monroe vs Tulane Key Stats
The Warhawks are 1-4 in their previous five games and have managed to cover the spread only once out of those five encounters. They came agonizingly close to beating the Greyhounds in their previous game, and Victor Bafutto led the charge for them as he scored 20 points and raked in eight rebounds.
Jamari Blackmon scored ten points and dished out five assists, while the others on the roster also stepped up but fell just short of a triple-double.
The Warhawks are scoring 72.6 points per game and giving up 72 on average per game, which gives them a differential of just +0.6. They have been subpar with their free throws and three-point shooting this season.
Tyreke Locure has been the standout player for the Warhawks, as he is averaging 13 points and two steals per game.
The Green Wave are 4-2 in their last six games. They were touted as the favorites in all of those six games but have only managed to cover the spread in one of them. Against the Hilltoppers, Kevin Cross scored 17 points with six assists and six rebounds, while Jaylen Forbes contributed 14 points.
The Green Wave started the game well but somehow lost track in the second half of the match, resulting in a painful defeat.
The Green Wave are averaging 78.7 points on 47.4% shooting and have a great 80.4 field goal percentage. They are restricting their opponents to 70.8 points on 41.1% shooting.
Offensively, the team has looked good, but they are struggling on the defensive end, which they need to sort out quickly if they want to progress to the NCAA tournament in March.
UL Monroe vs Tulane Betting Prediction
Tulane possesses a great roster with depth. The Green Wave is powerful on all fronts, and the Warhawks will find it difficult to overcome their talent advantage. Tulane is my choice to win, and I believe it will cover the spread as well.
With under 65 points scored in five of its seven games played, UL Monroe is not a prolific offensive team. They lost each of their five games, with their only victories coming against Central Baptist College and Dallas Christian College in routs.
Pick: Green Wave -18 (-120)
