Stats are not 100% up to the minute as the Howard loss is not reflected. I’ll update soon. La Salle is led by 6’1” Khalil Brantley (16.0 ppg & 5.2 reb), 5’11” Jhamir Brickus (14.3 ppg), 6’4” Anwar Gill (11.3 ppg), and 6’5” Daeshon Shepherd (10.8 ppg & 5.8 reb). 6’10” Rokas Jocius (7.7 ppg) rounds out the starting 5 for the Explorers. 6’5” Andres Marrero (8.5 ppg) and 6’8” Tunde Vahlberg Fasas (5.6 ppg) average double figure minutes off the bench for La Salle.
La Salle averages 78.8 points per game while giving up 74.6. The Explorers shoot 44.2% from the floor and 35.9% from 3. Opponents are shooting 44.4% from the field and 33.8% from 3. They shoot 72.4% from the free throw line. The Explorers are being out rebounded by their opponents by 3.2 boards per game. They average 10.3 turnovers per game.
My prediction: We’ve shown we can win on the road under Coach Skinn and our success continues. GMU 70 - La Salle 67.
