Providence at DePaul

These two basketball teams surely play a different style of basketball. Providence looks to move the ball and push it up the court every chance it gets, trying to get into a high scoring game, lots of turnover possibilities and force the other team to use their bench to refresh their players. DePaul likes to keep things slow in the half-court game and work the ball into the low post. While Providence gets 76ppg and gives up almost 75, DePaul puts up 65ppg and their opponents score almost 69. These numbers don't change much in home and away games and have been pretty steady in the past 5 games played by each of these teams. Providence played well against St Johns in their last game and are going to keep playing quality basketball like that. DePaul is starting to fall apart slightly and have gone 0-3 ATS in their past 3 home games. I like Providence getting the points in this close game. Providence for two stars.
