The St John’s Red Storm are led in scoring by Julian Champagnie who averages 18.9 points and 6.8 rebounds for this team. Posh Alexander averages 14.9 points and 4.6 rebounds a night. Dylan Addae-Wusu is the third leading scorer for the Red Storm as he averages 9.5 points a game for this team.
The Red Storm are averaging 79.7 points per game on 45.5% shooting from the field. They are allowing opponents to score 74.3 points per game. They are shooting 66.1% from the free throw line.
The Villanova Wildcats are coming off of a 11 point win against UConn in their last time out. Eric Dixon scored a career-high 24 points, Gillespie scored 19 before he hurt his ankle in the win.
The Villanova Wildcats are led in scoring by Colin Gillespie who averages 17.2 points and 3.3 rebounds for this team. Justin Moore averages 15.1 points and 5 rebounds a game for this team. Jermaine Samuels is the third leading scorer for the Wildcats as he averages 9.9 points a game for this team.

The Red Storm are 2-10 ATS in their last 12 home games and are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of greater than .600. The Wildcats are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 Tuesday games and are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. St. John’s is paying well, but I don’t think they can take out the Wildcats. Gillespie's injury will impact Nova, but they still should grab the win and cover in this one.
