by Eric Williams
The San Francisco Dons, (7-19 SU, 10-12 ATS, 10-12 O/U) haven’t won often this season under venerable head coach Eddie Sutton, but the team did pick up a victory in its last contest, beating Portland 73-60 at home last Monday to end a four-game losing streak.

The Santa Clara Broncos, (13-13 SU, 12-12 ATS, 8-16 O/U) have a slightly better record than their counterparts tonight, but have been nearly as inconsistent this season and dropped their last game, losing to San Diego 66-62 on Saturday.
While the Dons have been mediocre at best against the spread this season, going 1-4 against the spread in their last five and 4-6 ATS in their last ten games, the Broncos have been very solid against the spread in their last ten contests, going 7-3 over the span.
The Dons are averaging 64.9 points per game on 43.4 percent shooting while allowing a whopping 72.8 points per game on 48.9 percent shooting to their opponents.
Santa Clara averages just 62.8 point per night on 48.5 percent shooting while limiting their opponents to just 62.1 points per game on 42.0 percent shooting.
