What to Know

The Drexel Dragons and the Elon Phoenix are even-steven against one another since January of 2016 (6-6), but not for long. The Dragons and Elon will face off in a Colonial battle at 7 p.m. ET Thursday at John A Daskalakis Center. The Phoenix will be strutting in after a win while Drexel will be stumbling in from a loss.

It was close but no cigar for Drexel as they fell 71-68 to the Hofstra Pride on Monday. Guard Xavier Bell did his best for Drexel, finishing with 30 points (a whopping 44% of their total) and five dimes.

Meanwhile, everything went Elon's way against the James Madison Dukes on Monday as they made off with a 90-67 victory. Elon got their win on the backs of several key players, and it was guard Kris Wooten out in front shooting 7-for-13 from beyond the arc and finishing with 23 points.

The Dragons are the favorite in this one, with an expected 5.5-point margin of victory. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread as they are currently on a two-game streak of ATS wins.
