San Francisco vs San Diego Prediction
I’ll take a stab on the Toreros. You could call it either way, though. San Diego shot pretty well in their win over Portland with 46 percent from both the field and 3-point range (12-of-26) alongside 30 rebounds. The Toreros had 13 turnovers in that one though, and only shot eight free throws (making five for 63 percent). San Diego is still just 1-3 in their last four games though, scoring fewer than 64 points in two of the last three games as well.
In the last meeting between these two teams back on January 2, San Diego took a 74-64 road loss. In that game the Toreros shot 43 percent from the field and just 18 percent (4-of-22) from outside along with an ugly 42-25 rebounding deficit. San Diego had the edge in the paint (40-38) and on fast breaks (13-5), though. This home rematch is going to take a big push but I think the Toreros are up for it.
