10* Home Cooking Burial
(NCAAB) Providence vs. Butler,
Point Spread: -7.50 | -110.00 Butler (Home)
Result: Win
Butler has lost 3 straight games but two of those losses were against TOP 5 opponents. The shooting of Butler is quietly one of the better in the NCAA - with Kelan Martin and Kamar Baldwin in particular. Their guys are good without the ball, and very smooth to pull the trigger. The backcourt of Providence will struggle to get through Butler - and their attempt to get to the paint will slow down, as they wont be able to drive to the rack all day long. The Friars have potential - but allowing teams to score inside, the way they do, isn't showing that off. Providence has some pretty high caliber players at the most important positions with Alpha Diallo and Rodney Bullock. But will Providence be able to show them off here? No. Butler gets a big win at home here on Saturday afternoon.
