Grambling is coming off a narrow road win at Howard, while Southern Miss has struggled away from home, losing both road games this season.

Key Factors to Consider

Southern Miss averages 8.4 more points per game than Grambling but has lost 8 straight night games against non-conference opponents and has lost the first half in 7 of their last 8 such games.

No significant injuries reported for either team.

The Cleveland Cavaliers (8-4, 2nd in Eastern Conference) host the Toronto Raptors (6-5, 8th in Eastern Conference) in an Eastern Conference matchup. The Cavaliers are seeking their fourth consecutive home win, while the Raptors look to upset a strong home team as underdogs.
Key Factors to Consider
Cleveland is averaging 123 points on 45.3% shooting while allowing 117.6 points on 46.6% opponent shooting. Donovan Mitchell leads the Cavaliers with 30.4 PPG and 5.4 APG, while Evan Mobley contributes 20.1 PPG and 4.3 APG. Jarrett Allen recently dropped 30 points in a 130-116 home win over Miami. Toronto shoots 37.8% from three and 78.1% from the free-throw line, while allowing 33% from deep and grabbing 42.1 rebounds per game. Scottie Barnes recorded a double-double (15 points, 11 rebounds) against Brooklyn, and Jakob Poeltl posted a double-double (12 points, 10 rebounds) in his return.
Toronto holds a 1-0 record against Cleveland this season and is also 1-0 against the spread in head-to-head matchups. However, historical trends show the Cavaliers have covered the spread in nine of their last ten home games against winning-record Raptors teams.
No significant injuries reported for either team heading into the matchup.
The Cavaliers have won nine of their last ten home games on the second leg of a back-to-back. Conversely, the Raptors have lost 20 of their last 22 road games against teams with winning records. The Raptors have also failed to cover the spread in nine of their last ten games at this venue following a win. However, underdogs have covered the spread in eight of the Cavaliers' last nine home games at Quicken Loans Arena.
The Cavaliers are motivated to extend their home winning streak and maintain their second-place seeding in the Eastern Conference. The Raptors, as underdogs in the Eastern Conference, need road wins against quality opponents; they have won three of their last four games as underdogs against Eastern Conference opponents.

The Cleveland Cavaliers will win this matchup convincingly, covering the spread. While the Raptors have shown underdog resilience recently, the combination of Cleveland's home dominance, their superior record, elite scoring output led by Mitchell, and Toronto's historical struggles on the road against winning teams heavily favors the home team. Expect a competitive first half, but the Cavaliers pull away in the second half.
Howard Bison (1-2) hosts Alcorn State Braves (0-4) in a SWAC conference non-conference matchup. Howard is favored due to stronger offensive metrics, home court advantage, and Alcorn State’s significant struggles on the road.
Key Factors to Consider
Howard averages 80.0 PPG on 48.5% shooting, with good three-point accuracy (46%) and solid free throw shooting (74.2%). Alcorn State is struggling offensively, averaging 65.3 PPG with 42.6% FG and weaker free throw percentages around 60-64%. Howard also plays with more assists (18.3 APG vs. 10) and forces more turnovers (18 vs. 14).
Alcorn State has lost their last 36 road games against non-conference opponents and frequently struggles in the first half, losing it in 16 of 17 recent night games on the road. Howard has lost their last 6 games against non-conference opponents, but this game shapes up as a bounce-back opportunity at home.
No notable injuries reported for either team, both expected to have full lineups.
Howard’s home gym (Burr Gymnasium) provides a strong crowd advantage and comfort. Alcorn State faces challenges travelling and historically poor performance away from home.
Howard seeks to recover from recent losses, with key players like Bryce Harris and Alex Cotton leading the charge. Alcorn State is still winless and desperately needs a turnaround but shows lower confidence levels.

Seton Hall Pirates enter the game undefeated (3-0), hosting the Monmouth Hawks, who are 1-1. Seton Hall is heavily favored with dominant recent form and strong defensive stats, while Monmouth struggles on the road and against quality opponents.
Key Factors to Consider
Seton Hall has won all three games this season, averaging 75.7 points per game and holding opponents under 62 points. Monmouth is 1-1, averaging 78 points but limited by a slower pace and weaker defense.
Seton Hall leads 9-1 in their last 10 meetings. Monmouth won the last encounter last season but was comfortably defeated in prior matchups.
No major injury reports affecting either team, lineups appear intact for this contest.
Game played at Prudential Center, a neutral site closer to Seton Hall’s base, favoring the Pirates. Monmouth’s historically poor nighttime road performances further impact their chances negatively.
Seton Hall aims for a fourth straight win continuing their strong start, while Monmouth looks to rebound after a recent loss and secure their first road victory, but the motivation gap favors Seton Hall.
