What to Know

The Portland Pilots haven't won a matchup against the San Diego Toreros since Jan. 18 of 2018, but they'll be looking to end the drought on Thursday. Portland's homestand continues as they prepare to take on San Diego at 10 p.m. ET Feb. 17 at Earle A. Chiles Center. These two teams come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous games.

Everything came up roses for the Pilots at home against the Bushnell Beacons on Tuesday as the squad secured an 84-39 victory.

Meanwhile, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, the Toreros beat the Pacific Tigers 60-54 on Saturday. The top scorers for San Diego were guard Marcellus Earlington (14 points) and center Vladimir Pinchuk (12 points).

Barring any buzzer beaters, Portland is expected to win a tight contest. If their 16-8 record against the spread is anything to go by, the prospects look good for bets placed on them.

In the teams' previous meeting last month, Portland was in the race but had to settle for second with a 68-63 finish. Maybe they will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the contest and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
