CBB | Utah Valley 86 @ UAB 88 | 03/29 | 1:30 AM UTC
UAB -160
WIN
ANALYSIS: NIT semifinals from Las Vegas. KenPom ranks UAB No. 44 nationally and Utah Valley 64th. UAB's Conference USA was vastly superior to UVU's WAC this season. The Blazers' only two losses in their past 17 games were to fellow NIT Final Four club North Texas in overtime and NCAA Tournament Final Four team FAU. Jordan "Jelly" Walker sits in fourth nationally in points per game at 22.5 and third in three pointers per game at 4.23. Trey Jamison has double-doubles in 10 of the last 22 games. UAB will have a nice size advantage led by Jamison.
