News from the Bradley camp this week, where it was originally announced that second (F Darius Hannah) and third (G Zek Montgomery) leading scorers wouldn't play in the NIT. Hannah, however, has changed his mind and will be available. Still, Hanson likely doesn't start, and HC Brain Wardle has been working some other combos in practices, eager to give some of his younger troops a look. With top scorer G Duke Deen (13.8 pgp) having cooled off lately at the end of Arch Madness in St. Louis, this might not be a showcase for the Braves offense or their nation's-best 40.1% three-point accuracy. Note UNA 8-3 under its last eleven, while none of Bradley's last five games reached 147.5, all under. Play UNA-Bradley Under (NIT).

Bradley has two players that may not be playing in this game tonight. The Braves have a ton of experience but that takes a hit without two of their top players. North Alabama leads the country in turnover percentage and one of the better offensive rebounding teams as well. This seems like a lack of motivation for the Braves and even though North Alabama fell short in the conference final, this team plays hard with a lot of guards and five players averaging in double figures.
