Providence Friars Notes
Providence dropped to Seton Hall 61-57 on Wednesday. Josh Oduro led the Friars in points with 23, however on 9/21 from the floor. Bryce Hopkins left Wednesday’s contest in the second half with a knee injury. Unfortunately for Hopkins and Providence, it was later announced he suffered a torn ACL and will be out for the remainer of the season. For the Friars, they will need someone to step up in Hopkins absence, as he was having a great season averaging 15 ppg and nearly 9 rebounds.
Creighton Bluejays Notes
Creighton got back in the win column against Georgetown on Jan 2nd. After a slow start, the Bluejays found their groove scoring 49 points in the second half. Trey Alexander had a big game scoring 25 points on 11/17 from the floor. Creighton will look to keep their momentum going on Saturday as they host Providence.

Providence vs. Creighton CBB Prediction:
Providence looks to get back in the win column, while Creighton looks to win consecutive games.
Give me Providence. The loss of Hopkins is obviously massive for the Friars, but they still have capable scorers and guys who play hard defensively. Providence should come out with a chip on their shoulder have their home loss earlier in the week. In what should be a big east battle, I’ll gladly take the points.
