Little Rock vs. Lindenwood Picks
Point Spread Pick for Little Rock vs. Lindenwood
- Lindenwood Lions to cover. (4 Units)
The Lions have the edge here because they’re playing well offensively, scoring more than 77 points per game at home, while making over 47 percent of their shots. Their ball movement has been good, and they’re also the better rebounding team, grabbing more than 12 offensive rebounds per game in their last three games, which will give them more scoring chances. They also cut down their turnovers in recent games, and won’t give up many easy-scoring chances. The Trojans aren’t very good defensively, and they’re giving up more than 74 points per game on the road, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Lions. Take Lindenwood to cover the spread.
Over/Under Pick for Little Rock vs. Lindenwood
- Under (4 Units)
The Trojans average 70.8 points per game. They play at the 274th-fastest pace in the nation, averaging 68.8 possessions per game, and they’re facing a team that gave up 70.7 points per game in their last three games. The Lions average 78.3 points per game. They play at the 18th-fastest pace in the nation, averaging 75.2 possessions per game, and they’re facing a team that gave up 72 points per game in their last three games. Don’t expect these teams to score enough points to push the score over the total.
