RIchmond is favored to win by 7 on the road here.
Richmond Spiders
Richmond ended the non-conference slate on a six-game winning streak, that included a road win over N.C. State and a victory over Toledo at the Robins Center. They opened A-10 play with a pair of losses, but they’ve won four of their last five games, and defeating Rhode Island on the road last time out.
The Spiders scored 74.1 ppg, and they are EXTREMELY experienced.
Tyler Burton is the youngest member of the starting lineup as a junior and he leads the team in scoring at 16.7 ppg. The 6’7 forward double-doubled in the win over URI, and he scored a season-high 29 points in a win over in-state rival ODU.
Grant Golden was granted a sixth season by the NCAA, and he remains a hassle on the low block for opposing teams. The captain is averaging 15.1 ppg, while grabbing 6.1 rpg and dishing out a respectable 3.2 apg.
Jacob Gilyard and Nick Sherod both returned for their fifth season’s and they’ve given UR solid guard play once again. Gilyard has been a menace defensively, swiping four or more steals in each of the past five games. He’s posting a healthy line of 12.4 ppg, 3.5 rpg, a team-leading 6.2 apg, and an A10-leading 3.4 spg.
Nathan Cayo also came back for his fifth year in RIchmond, and the 6’7 forward scored 14 points in the win over UMass.
Duquense Dukes
Duquense has dropped their last two games after opening A-10 play with a victory over UMass. The Dukes hosted Dayton last weekend, and they ran into a wall, losing 72-52.
Leon Ayers III leads the team in scoring after coming over for Mercer this past summer. The 6’5 guard scored 23 or more points in wins over Bradley, American, and UC Irvine, and his play factor heavily into the Dukes success
Transfers Kevin Easley Jr. (TCU) and Tre Williams (Indiana State) start in the front court for the Dukes. Easley Jr. is a work horse who leads the team in minutes, while scoring 12.2 ppg and grabbing 6.5 rpg. Williams double-doubled in the loss to DePaul and he leads Duquense in rebounding (6.6).
Freshman guards Amir Spears and Jackie Johnson III have given the backcourt some more life. Spears has scored 20 points in back-to-back games, and he’s second on the team in scoring (12.3). Johnson III has started to receive more playing time, and he scored a career-high 27 points in the win over UMass.

Free Richmond Spiders vs. Duquense Dukes NCAAB Prediction: Richmond -6.5
Duquense’s streaking the wrong way, while Richmond remains in the thick of the Atlantic 10 picture.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Richmond -6.5
After being spurned by a stud from Richmond over the weekend in Gibson Jimerson, the Dukes will likely suffer the same fate to a deeper extent this Tuesday. The Spiders will be out to avenge a tough loss to VCU, and they should come in sharp here.
