Atlantic 10 Saturday Games: 12/28/19

After a long A-10 hoops hiatus, we’re back in a rare weekend where Sunday’s games are better than Saturday’s games.

La Salle (-6.5) vs. Bucknell
George Washington (-9) vs. Longwood

The Explorers look to continue building momentum with a possible 5th straight win before conference play. Then they’ll get their best test of league play at the start at home against Dayton. I think La Salle can take down Bucknell today, but it might be a close game. George Washington hopes to get back to .500 at home against a pretty poor Longwood team as well.

Picks: Bucknell +6.5, Longwood +9

La Salle makes it 5 straight heading into conference play. Dayton is gonna be a ~10 point favorite when it visits Gola next week, but I think that game could be closer than that. La Salle’s improvement means a Dayton road win would be logged as a Q2 win. Great 9-3 showing OOC.

Impressed with Armel Potter today -- 13 points and 12 assists. He's had 22 assists in the last 2 games. Great passer. George Washington certainly didn't want to lose to Longwood, and thankfully they didn't.
