Rider at Iona

Rider has won two in a row, including their conference opener in an 80-68 rout of Siena. Iona likes to run, so look for Rider to play the low-post game with 7-foot junior Matt Lopez and his 11 points per game, 4.8 rebounds per game) 6-4 Teddy Okereafor (11.3 ppg, 4.6 rpg) and 6-7 soph Kahlil Thomas (4.8 rpg). Okereafor scored 28 points and grabbed a career-best nine rebounds to lead Rider to an 80-68 victory over Siena on Sunday. Iona is all about offense, but their lack of defense is hurting, allowing 94 and 92 points the last two games (both losses). They were favored the last game but lost 92-89 to Monmouth, allowing over 52% shooting. The Gaels are 0-7 ATS after allowing more than 90 points in their previous game. Take the points on Rider.
