Colorado State vs Texas 6:50 ET Rams (+) over Longhorns- Seventh-seeded Texas (20-12) is in the NCAA Tournament for the 22nd time in the last 25 editions of the event. No. 10 seed Colorado State (25-10) is in the field for the second time in three years and has already padded its March credentials.

But that was just the fifth all-time NCAA Tournament victory for Colorado State and its first in 11 years.Texas, which is aiming for a first-round victory for the third season in a row after reaching the Elite Eight last season, lost two of its last three games coming in. The Longhorns haven't played since a March 13 setback to Kansas State in the Big 12 tournament's second round.The Rams want to build on the momentum from Tuesday night when they overwhelmed their opponent from the Atlantic Coast Conference. Now, they face a team in its final year in the Big 12. Since losing their last three games in February, the Rams have gone 5-1. Take COLORADO STATE! |

Morehead State vs Illinois Eagles (+) over Fighting Illini- Illinois' inability to advance past the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament in its past three appearances isn't lost on players as they pivot their focus away from the regular season and a vaunted conference tourney. Morehead State enters on a six-game winning streak after losing three straight in mid-February. The Eagles have been on a continued run of success. Illinois cruised in the only previous meeting between the schools, earning a 110-75 home victory against Morehead State on Dec. 10, 1993.

Colorado vs Boise State 9:10 ET Broncos (+) over Buffaloes- Boise State is making a third consecutive appearance in the field and were shaken when their stock dropped and shock set-in that they were being sent to the play-in portion of the NCAA Tournament. The Broncos (22-10) meet Colorado (24-10) in the final game of the eight-team, pre-tournament on Wednesday night. Boise State had seven wins against NCAA Tournament teams and expected to be a part of the core group. The Broncos finished No. 26 in the NET rankings, which projected as the equivalent of a No. 7 seed. They were second in the Mountain West standings with a 13-5 record and the conference has six teams in the Field of 68. Boise State has four players averaging double-figures in scoring but still they are 0-9 all-time in the NCAA Tournament. That streak ends here. Take BOISE STATE! |

Sacramento at Toronto 7:30 ET Kings (-) over Raptors- I had to do a double take and then had to research the lines between these two in previous meetings. I saw the Kings open minus-9 1/2 for this one and the last five times these two met in Toronto the Raptors were anywhere from a minus 4.5 to -6.5 in the last three and were eight and nine point favorites. The Kings wee -4.5 at home on Jan. 5, the books see a blowout. Take SACRAMENTO! |

Anthony Edwards picked up the slack scoring 32 points with eight assists despite making just 2-of-8 from downtown.

UCF made it to the second round of last season's NIT, beating Florida and losing to Oregon. UCF coach Johnny Dawkins has won the NIT twice.

Kansas State vs Iowa 9:00 ET Hawkeyes (-) over Wildcats- With thoughts of making the NCAA Tournament gone, Kansas State and Iowa return to the hard court Tuesday night for a first-round game in the NIT in Iowa City, Iowa. The Hawkeyes (18-14) had a chance to make the big dance. They played six games against teams that ended up with top-3 seeds in the NCAA Tournament: Creighton, Purdue (twice), Iowa State and Illinois (twice). Iowa went a combined 0-6 in those games. Iowa is 10-8 all-time in the NIT, including finishing as the runner-up in 2013 while the Wildcats, who are 6-8 in the NIT. With the Wildcats winning against ranked competition and the Hawkeyes going 0-6 one would think Kansas State should be the favorite but, the odds makers thinks differently and and I believe them.

This is the final of four meetings this season between the Lone Star State rivals, with the Mavericks having won the first three by an average of 18.3 points per game. Dallas (39-29) is in a virtual tie with Sacramento and Phoenix for the sixth spot in the Western Conference.

Zion Williamson, who has shed 20 pounds since December, added 26 and 10 rebounds and has scored at least 20 in five consecutive games and in 10 of his past 13.

North Texas at LSU 7:00 ET Mean Green (+) over Tigers- LSU is returning to postseason play. It's not the NCAA Tournament, but the No. 4 seed Tigers' game against unseeded North Texas in the first round of the NIT on Tuesday night in Baton Rouge, La., is a notable step in the rebuilding of the program. LSU (17-15) went 9-9 in the Southeastern Conference after winning just two league games in 2022-23 in coach Matt McMahon's first season after he was hired to guide the program in the wake of NCAA sanctions. The Tigers, who defeated the Mean Green 66-62 on Nov. 17 in the Shriners Children's Charleston (S.C.) Classic, won three of their last four regular-season games to earn a first-round bye in the SEC tournament. They lost to Mississippi State 70-60 in their conference tournament opener. North Texas (18-14) is very familiar with the NIT. The Mean Green are in the tournament for the third consecutive season and they won it last season, defeating UAB in the final. North Texas won three of its last four regular-season games, then defeated Tulane 81-71 in the first round of the American Athletic Conference tournament before losing to Florida Atlantic 77-71.

The Nuggets are 11-1 since the All-Star break and hold the top seed in the Western Conference with 15 games to play. Dallas saw its four-game win streak come to an end with Thursday's 126-119 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Mavericks are in eighth place in the West and hoping to climb out of the play-in tournament bracket. Dallas has dropped its last three meetings against Denver, including a 130-104 road loss on Dec. 18. The Mavs Luka Doncic (sore left hamstring) and Josh Green (right ankle sprain) missed Thursday's game against Oklahoma City, but an MRI came back clean and he could return. The Mavericks are 3-6 in games this season without Doncic. The line tells me he will be ready. Take DALLAS! |

Wisconsin vs Illinois 3:30 ET Badgers (+) over Fighting Illini- One thing I can say about the Badgers is that they are a difficult club when playing a true road game where they are 3-9 SU and a game at a neutral site as they are now 4-0 on the year. Illinois has won seven straight in the series and has covered the number in the last eight meetings including a 91-83 win in Madison two weeks ago.

In the first meeting between the teams this season on Feb. 2, Iowa held off visiting Ohio State 79-77 as Tony Perkins' 20 points led a balanced attack. Jamison Battle posted 17 points for the Buckeyes. The Buckeyes have won four in a row and five of six since he replaced the fired Chris Holtmann on Feb. 14, including beating then No. 2 Purdue in his debut. The loser of the second-round matchup between the Buckeyes (19-12) and the Hawkeyes (18-13) can likely start making plans for the NIT instead of keeping their hopes alive of making the NCAA Tournament. Take IOWA! |

Kansas vs Cincinnati 9:30 ET Bearcats (+) over Jayhawks- Cincinnati overcame a 16-point, second-half deficit in its first-ever appearance in the Big 12 Conference tournament to claim a thrilling 90-85 victory over West Virginia on Tuesday. The Bearcats will face 16th-ranked Kansas, the 12-time conference tournament champion sixth-seeded Kansas (22-9) who will be without its top two scorers due to injury. Kansas has gotten used to playing without leading scorer Kevin McCullar Jr., who has missed five full games and parts of several others with a bone bruise on his left knee.

Cleveland at New Orleans 8:00 ET Cavaliers (+) over Pelicans- New Orleans' past three opponents were missing at least one key player due to injury. Toronto was missing Scottie Barnes, Philadelphia was without Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey and Atlanta didn't have Trae Young and Jalen Johnson. The Cavaliers, who lost 117-111 to the Phoenix Suns on Monday to complete a three-game homestand, also have had injury issues. The Cavaliers alternated wins and losses in the eight games before the Phoenix matchup, when they took a second consecutive setback. Included in that stretch are victories against two of the best teams in the NBA the Boston Celtics and Minnesota Timberwolves and losses to teams with losing records the Chicago Bulls, Brooklyn Nets and Hawks. The Cavs suck it up and get the money here. Take CLEVELAND! |

Denver at Miami 7:00 ET Heat (+) over Nuggets- It will be a rematch of last year's NBA Finals on Wednesday. The reigning-champion Denver Nuggets, led by two-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokic, are set to visit the Miami Heat. Denver has won three straight games and nine of 10. Miami is going in the opposite direction with three straight losses, including an embarrassing 110-108 home defeat to the lowly Washington Wizards on Sunday. Miami will lean on leading scorer Jimmy Butler (21.7 points) and top rebounder Bam Adebayo (19.9 points, 10.4 boards). Butler missed practice Tuesday with an illness but is expected to play Wednesday. The Heat have already played the Nuggets once this season, losing in Denver 103-97 on Feb. 29. Michael Porter Jr. led Denver with 30 points in that game. They even the series here. Take MIAMI! |

Chicago at Indiana 7:00 ET Bulls (+) over Pacers- Indiana opened a back-to-back set on Tuesday with a 121-111 road win over one of the Western Conference co-leaders, the Oklahoma City Thunder. Coupled with the Philadelphia 76ers' 106-79 defeat at New York, the Pacers moved to sixth place in the East -- the last guaranteed playoff spot. The Pacers were dealt a significant blow for their late-season push when sparkplug scorer Bennedict Mathurin, averaging 14.5 points per game, sustained a season-ending right shoulder injury last week. He will require surgery. Chicago, pulled within a game of .500 last week after winning four of five games, including the first three of a four-game Western Conference road trip. Chicago comes into the Wednesday contest in ninth place in the Eastern Conference, five games in the loss column behind seventh-place Philadelphia and the eighth-place Miami Heat. The teams split the previous two meetings. The Bulls posted a 112-105 win when they visited Indiana on Oct. 30, and the Pacers responded with a 120-104 victory in Chicago on Dec. 28. The visitor does it again. Take CHICAGO! |

Kansas State at Texas 7:00 ET Wildcats (+) over Longhorns- Kansas State (18-13) comes into the tournament as the 10th seed, with the memory of a much-needed victory over then-No. 6 Iowa State in its last game. The Wildcats play seventh-seeded Texas (20-11), which is comfortably in the NCAA Tournament after defeating archrival Oklahoma in its last game. The Wildcats may need to win the conference tournament to feel secure on Selection Sunday, but avenging a 62-56 loss to Texas in Austin in February would be a good place to start. While the Longhorns look like a lock to get into the NCAA Tournament either way, they're focused on eliminating all doubt. They've won two of the past three Big 12 tournament titles but that ends here. Take KANSAS STATE! |

NC State vs Syracuse 7:00 ET Wolfpack (+) over Orange- North Carolina State is still alive in the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament after beating Louisville on Tuesday. NC State (18-14) trailed 15th-seeded Louisville by as many as 12 points. But the Wolfpack opened the second half with a 12-4 run to take a seven-point advantage. NC State will likely need everyone to play well and on both ends of the floor if it wants to beat Syracuse (20-11). The Orange are motivated to boost their resume for the NCAA Tournament. The Orange beat the Wolfpack twice this season, 77-65 at home on Jan. 27 and 87-83 in Raleigh, N.C., on Feb. 20. This time out the Wolfpack get it done. Take NC STATE! |

Gonzaga vs. St. Mary’s 9:00 ET Gaels (_) over Bulldogs- St. Mary’s entered their regular season final on a 16-game winning streak and had a chance to go undefeated in WCC play. They were 17-0 in conference play but the perennial WCC champion Gonzaga pulled off a 70-57 upset to tarnish the Gaels final regular conference record. These two clubs are the only clubs worthy of an invite to the Big Dance and both will get seeded in the upper half of brackets formed. Take ST. MARY’S! |

Houston at San Antonio 8:00 ET Spurs (+) over Rockets- Houston is on a season long road winning streak and are in a postseason position as of now. The Rockets will will be without leading scorer Alperen Sengun, who will be out an extended period of time after sustaining right knee and ankle injuries early in the fourth quarter of a win over the Sacramento Kings on Saturday. The game is the second of a home back-to-back for the Spurs, who lost 112-103 to the Golden State Warriors on Monday. That contest was the opener of a season-high eight-game homestand for San Antonio al though two of those games will be played in Austin, Texas. The Rockets head to San Antonio five games behind Golden State for 10th place and the final spot in the Western Conference play-in tournament. The Spurs, who are last in the conference, are already eliminated from postseason contention and feel no pressure as they continue to improve. Take SAN ANTONIO! |

Both of these clubs are hurting with numerous players sidelined with injuries and the toll is greater in New York despite the 76ers being without MVP Joel Embiid. Take PHILADELPHIA! |

Dallas at Chicago 8:00 ET Bulls (+) over Mavericks- Dallas has won consecutive games for the first time since rattling off seven straight victories from Feb. 5-22. Four teammates followed Doncic in double figures, led by Kyrie Irving with 21 points. The Mavericks remain in firm position in the Western Conference playoff picture, moving within one game of the sixth seed and the opportunity to remain out of the conference play-in tournament. Doncic makes that statement even after setting an NBA record with his sixth consecutive 30-point triple-double. His 39-point, 10-rebound, 10-assist effort to key a 142-124 victory at Detroit on Saturday also was the league-best fifth straight time Doncic scored at least 35 points to spark a triple-double. Chicago has won six of the past eight meetings with Dallas overall. When a team has your number they have your number. Take CHICAGO! |

Minnesota is 2-3 over that five-game stretch after winning seven of eight. It was the Timberwolves' second game without Karl-Anthony Towns, who is expected to miss extended time with a knee injury. Replacement Naz Reid scored a career-high 34 points off the bench. The Wolves are still just a half-game behind the Oklahoma City Thunder for the top spot in the Western Conference heading into Saturday's NBA play. The Lakers fended off the Milwaukee Bucks 123-122 at home Friday without the services of LeBron James, who was experiencing soreness in a nagging left ankle injury. Letdown for LA..Take MINNESOTA! |

Maryland at Penn State 7;30 ET Terrapins (+) over Nittany Lions- Two teams lingering near the bottom of the Big Ten standings conclude their regular season Sunday when Maryland visits Penn State at University Park, Pa. The Nittany Lions (14-16, 8-11 Big Ten) enter the weekend tied for 10th place in the 14-team conference. The Terrapins (15-15, 7-12) are tied for 12th with only Michigan looking up at them in the league standings. Both teams come into the matchup having lost two games in a row. Maryland allowed Indiana to shoot 56.4 percent from the field and 7 of 16 (43.8 percent) from 3-point range in an 83-78 defeat on March 3. Penn State dropped road games at Iowa and Minnesota in their two most recent contests, although it has not played since last weekend. Take MARYLAND! |

Illinois at Iowa 7:00 ET Hawkeyes (+) over Fighting Illini- Iowa has won four of their last five games entering this weekend at No. 48 in the Ken Pom rankings and No. 57 in the NET which are two key metrics monitored by the NCAA Tournament committee. For No. 12 Illinois, there's little at stake in the regular-season finale at Iowa on Sunday afternoon. The Big Ten title is out of reach, the No. 2 seed in next week's Big Ten tournament is clinched, and a No. 4 or 5 NCAA Tournament seed seems virtually assured. But for Iowa, there's so much more than Senior Night on the agenda. When the teams met in Champaign two weekends ago, Iowa built a seven-point second-half lead only for its offense to go quiet late in a 95-85 Illinois victory. This time they close the deal. Take IOWA! |

Indiana at Orlando 5:00 ET Magic over Pacers- Two teams battling for Eastern Conference playoff position meet when the Orlando Magic face the visiting Indiana Pacers on Sunday. Orlando was held to the lowest points total in the NBA this season in the loss to the Knicks, who limited the Magic to 34.2 percent shooting from the field and 23.1 percent from 3-point range. Both teams are looking to bounce back from disappointing losses. Orlando had its five-game winning streak snapped in a 98-74 road defeat to the New York Knicks on Friday, while Indiana fell 113-111 at home Thursday to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Orlando has won its two previous meetings against Indiana this season, including a 117-110 victory in Indianapolis on Dec. 23. Pacers get back... Take INDIANA! |

! Houston at Sacramento 4:00 ET Rockets (+) over Kings- Sacramento has been unable to replicate their offensive might from last season, sliding to 12th in offensive rating. Defensively, the Kings are ranked 22nd, and their struggles against the Wembanyama-less Spurs were the latest example of a team not quite clicking on all cylinders. The Kings have been unable to recapture the magic from last season when they snapped a lengthy postseason drought by riding the top-ranked offense in the NBA to the third seed in the Western Conference. The Rockets have enjoyed similar moments this season, with their athleticism fueling easy transition baskets. And while Houston has struggled to consistently produce in such a manner, for one night at least everything clicked, and the results were particularly favorable. Take HOUSTON! |

Michigan State at Indiana 4:30 ET Spartans (-) over Hoosiers- Michigan State was ranked No. 4 in the country in the preseason, but inconsistency and underperforming veteran players have left the Spartans simply hoping to keep alive their streak of making the NCAA Tournament. The Spartans (18-12, 10-9 Big Ten) enter after posting a 53-49 win over Northwestern on Wednesday that snapped a three-game losing streak, but their strong strength of schedule and NET ranking (No. 23 going into Friday) have them still in listed in most NCAA Tournament field projections. A road win at Indiana would go a long way to solidifying an NCAA bid, with the subsequent hope being that they can use the postseason to fulfill preseason projections. Indiana (17-13, 9-10) has struggled all season, but enters on a three-game winning streak and playing its best basketball. The Hoosiers have beaten Wisconsin at home and won on the road at Maryland and Minnesota during the stretch. The success has coincided with the return of senior point guard Xavier Johnson, who missed six games with an elbow injury. Not enough here. Take MICHIGAN STATE! |

After that, the Celtics suffered a 115-109 loss at Denver on Thursday. The Phoenix Suns will attempt to hand the visiting Boston Celtics their third consecutive loss when the teams meet Saturday night. The Suns are hoping to have guard Devin Booker in the lineup Saturday. Booker has missed three games since he sprained his right ankle during a 118-109 loss to Houston on March 2 but was listed as questionable on Friday's injury report. Saturday's contest will be the first of two meetings between Boston and Phoenix during the regular season. The teams will also play Thursday in Boston. This one goes to the home team. Take PHOENIX! |

Marquette at Xavier 5:00 ET Musketeers (+) over Golden Eagles- Xavier (15-15, 9-10) is looking to finish its regular season with a break-even mark in conference play on Senior Day at Cintas Center. The Musketeers had their modest two-game winning streak snapped with a 72-66 loss to Butler on Wednesday night in Indianapolis. Also on the line for the Musketeers is Big East tournament seeding. They are seeking a win, combined with a UConn win over Providence and a Creighton victory over Villanova, to avoid playing in the 8-9 seed matchup in the tourney opener on Wednesday. Eighth-ranked Marquette will look to head into the Big East tournament with some momentum and avoid its first three-game skid of the season when it visits Xavier on Saturday in Cincinnati. Marquette (22-8, 13-6) enters the regular-season finale for both teams coming off a 74-67 loss Wednesday to No. 2 UConn in Milwaukee. Musketeers defeated the Eagles the last time they hosted them last January. Thy do it again! Take XAVIER! |

Kentucky at Tennessee 4:00 ET Volunteers (-) over Wildcats- The Volunteers (24-6, 14-3) clinched their first outright Southeastern Conference regular-season title since 2008 with a 66-59 win Wednesday night at No. 17 South Carolina. No matter what happens in Saturday's regular-season finale in Knoxville against No. 15 Kentucky, the Vols are the top seed for the SEC Tournament in Nashville next week. There is something at stake for the Wildcats (22-8, 12-5) too. They are playing for a double bye into the quarterfinals of the SEC tourney and to possibly improve their seeding for the NCAA tournament. And they would love to spoil Tennessee's senior day. We had the Volunteers in the first meeting a 103-92 win at Kentucky and they’ll do it again Take TENNESSEE! |

Creighton at Villanova 2:30 ET Wildcats (+) over Bluejays- Creighton, with its NCAA Tournament bid all but wrapped up, will look to build on an impressive 89-75 victory over then-No. 5 Marquette last Saturday on an emotional Senior Day. The Bluejays (22-8, 13-6) have won at least 20 games for the ninth season in a row. They still have a chance to secure the No. 2 seed in the conference tournament. A home victory by Villanova over No. 10 Creighton on Saturday in Philadelphia undoubtedly would impress the NCAA Tournament selection committee. A victory is much needed after the Wildcats (17-13, 10-9 Big East) fell 66-56 on the road against Seton Hall on Wednesday. While a win over the Bluejays won't guarantee an NCAA bid for the Wildcats, it certainly would improve their chances heading into the Big East Conference tournament. Wildcats won earlier December meeting 68-66 in overtime. I expect them to do it again. Take VILLANOVA! |

Milwaukee at LA Lakers 10:00 ET Lakers (+) over Bucks- The Milwaukee Bucks saw their six-game win streak come crashing down Wednesday in a 125-90 setback to the Golden State Warriors. Playing with a renewed energy undr Doc Rivers of late on the defensive end, the Bucks did not allow an opponent to score more than 107 points in their winning run and held four foes below 100. The Lakers also were thumped Wednesday, taking a 19-point lead in the first quarter against the Sacramento Kings before giving all of it back before halftime and losing 130-120 after trailing by as many as 22. Team defense was off kilter with Anthony Davis in foul trouble. Los Angeles is still much improved with a 10-5 record since the start of February but have lost two of their past three. The victory was over one of the top teams in the Western Conference, the Oklahoma City Thunder, on Monday. They rise to meet the Bucks tonight. Take LAKERS! |

Colorado at Oregon 9:00 ET Buffaloes (+) over Ducks- The Colorado-Oregon men's basketball game on Thursday in Eugene, Ore., has important implications for both teams. The Buffaloes (20-9, 11-7 Pac-12) can clinch third place in the conference regular-season standings and the No. 3 seed in the Pac-12 tournament next week. The Ducks need at least a win Thursday to take the No. 3 seed. Oregon (19-10, 11-7) hosts Utah on Saturday, and it lost to both the Buffaloes and Utes on the road earlier this season. One more win for either team will guarantee a first-round bye in the conference tournament. Colorado comes in hot, having won four straight overall. However, the Buffs are 2-6 on the road in conference play. Oregon has been up and down since a 5-0 start to conference play. Along the way, health problems have contributed to the Ducks' inconsistency, with three players out due to season-ending injuries and another with an undisclosed illness. Take COLORADO! |

The Mavericks' recent woes on the defensive end have resulted in a 1-5 record over a stretch in which Luca Doncic has been on fire offensively. Over the last six games while the Mavericks have struggled to earn wins, Doncic is averaging 37 points per game - pushing his league-leading season average to 34.6 per game.

Mississippi State looks like a safe bet for an NCAA Tournament at-large bid. But two losses last week to ranked opponents mean the Bulldogs could use one more win to stop any thoughts of sliding back on the bubble. The Aggies (16-13, 7-9) snapped a five-game losing streak on Saturday night with a 70-56 SEC win at Georgia. But Texas A&M appears to have played itself off the NCAA Tournament bubble with its recent skid. It may have to win the SEC tournament next week in Nashville to earn a bid, a disappointment for a team expected to contend for a league title. Take MISSISSIPPI STATE! |

The Mavericks are also aiming to flip the page on an ugly stretch that has seen them drop four of five games. Their inefficient defense reared its ugly head during the five-game stretch, as the Mavericks have given up 127.4 points per game in the span. Indiana comes in losers of two straight, most recently on the wrong side of a 117-105 defeat to the lowly San Antonio Spurs Sunday. Hoping to emerge from an offensive slump is Pacers All-Star guard Tyrese Haliburton, who is averaging just 9.5 points per game and shooting 26.5 percent from the field over the last four games.
