**PREFERRED
Tennessee* over Wyoming by 29
Wyoming is playing at 75.4 possessions per game and getting less than 1.0 point per possession. Tennessee is playing at 73.4 possessions per game and allowing less than .90 points per possession. Wyoming was a little banged-up recently, missing its lead- ing scorer Afam Muojeke. Without him, their second leading scorer “stepped up” with a 1-for-11 shooting performance. Good luck to all road underdog backers, for they will surely need it. TENNESSEE, 90-61.

**PREFERRED
*Portland over Sacramento by 17
The Kings have been playing above their heads and are due for a fall. Their frontline doesn’t have the height to match up to Portland’s. The Trail Blazers were leading the league in rebounding. The Trail Blazers have a track record of home dominance in the Rose Garden with six of their first eight home victories being by nine or more points. PORTLAND 111-94.
