Hampton Pirates vs Elon Phoenix. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Elon Phoenix.
Elon is by no means a dominant force, but they are currently playing considerably better than Hampton and will be competing on their home court.
Additionally, they have a vastly improved defense, which should be able to capitalize on Hampton’s egregiously ineffective offense.
Hampton’s defense, on the other hand, seldom stops anyone, therefore Elon should be able to score much more readily than they typically do.
It should be an easy win for Elon because they will have more open looks and stops. Elon will make a sixth consecutive cover. The Elon Phoenix will win to a predicted score of 76-70.
