Game Preview
The Don Haskins Center will play host for the head to head matchup between the Charlotte 49ers and the UTEP Miners. Tipo-off is set to start at 9:00 pm Eastern Time on Thursday, February 9th.
Charlotte will be hoping for another dominant performance from the team’s leading scorer Brice Williams, currently averaging 12.78 points per game for the 49ers. Williams’ main threat is his play around the perimeter. At the moment, he leads the team in 3 pointers made, however he definitely needs a help crew in the scoring department, as the 49ers will sadly play without second place scorer Aly Khalifa, due to an injury. Through the 23 season games, he is 2nd on the squad with 11.24 points per contest, taking a decent 50.4% of his field goal attempts.
As for their major weakness, offensive production has been rather inconsistent for Charlotte this season, currently ranking 237th in the league at 70.7 average points per game.
Let’s check the latest picks, NCAAB news, stats and NCAAB expert picks for Charlotte vs UTEP. We’ve plenty of NCAAB predictions for you to consider.
UTEP will be counting on 2 players to carry their offensive plays, Tae Hardy and Shamar Givance. Hardy is averaging 13.09 points per game for the Miners, while also taking the lead in deep shooting. As for Shamar Givance, he has not impressed as much as fans expected, with 40.2% of his field goal attempts finishing with an average of 10.43 points per game.
Similar to Charlotte, the key reason for low scoring affairs is attributed to lack of energy and passion, as their rebounding game plus rotational passes to the third man are not appearing as often as they should. On top of that, the Miners’ 3-point shooting percentage stands at a low 35.2%, ranking them 171st in the league.
We give the edge to Charlotte this time around.
