The Southern Illinois Salukis and the Northern Iowa Panthers will clash tonight in Conference tournament play at Enterprise Center in St. Louis. The Salukis enter tonight’s game riding a 3-game winning streak and have won 4 of their last 5. The Panthers are on a 2-game skid and lost both meetings with the Salukis this year. Southern Illinois is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 overall and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings with Northern Iowa. The Salukis are laying 3.5, however, this game is at a neutral site so play it safe and consider Southern Illinois on the money line.

The Purdue Fort Wayne Mastodons came up lame in their last home stand, falling to the North Dakota Fighting Hawks, 82-88, in a game where they were heavily favored and should have won easily. Today they will have a chance to redeem themselves in front of the home crowd when they host the North Dakota State Bison. Despite their last home loss, the Mastodons are still a good bet when they take the court at Hilliard Gates Sports Center. PFW is 11-4 at home, where they light up the scoreboard, averaging 83.1 points per game, allowing an average of 76.7, and are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 at home. NDS comes into today’s game just 3-9 on the road, averaging 65.3 points per game and allowing an average of 77.5. The Bison are 5-17 ATS in the last 22 meetings with the Mastodons and 2-9 ATS in their last 11 trips to Purdue Fort Wayne. The Mastodons will be laying 4.5 and should cover the number.
TODAY’S PICK: FORT WAYNE MASTODONS -4.5

When the San Francisco Dons host the San Diego Toreros tonight at War Memorial Gymnasium, it will be electric, as it should be.

The San Antonio Spurs will be glad to get back home after a disastrous road trip where they were just 1-7. Tonight they will host a red hot Detroit Pistons team, who have won 3 straight and 8 of their last 10. However, Detroit has mustered just 2 wins in it’s last 10 meetings with San Antonio and their road record has not been good, at 11-17, where they are averaging 105.6 points per game and allowing an average of 109. On the flip side, the Spurs have been dominating opponents at AT&T Center, where they are 22-7, averaging 113.9 points per game and allowing an average of 107. Pop gets his team back on track.

The Nevada Wolf Pack are a perfect 12-0 at home and that is where they’ll be tonight when they host the Fresno State Bulldogs.

At Lawlor Center, Nevada is lighting up the scoreboard, averaging 83.4 points per game and allowing an average of 60.3. Fresno State is a respectable 6-2 on the road, where they are averaging 73.4 points per game and allowing an average of 66.8. The Pack will be laying 13 points in this game and there’s a reason for that, because at Lawlor Center, their margin of victory has been an average of 23.1 points per game. Nevada is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games overall, 6-1 ATS in their last 7 against the Mountain West, and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings against the Bulldogs.
