UMKC shoots 28.5 percent from 3-point range in conference play, dead last in the Summit League. The Roos' 27.3 percent mark overall ranks 361st out of 363 teams. But in the first meeting against North Dakota State, the Roos shot an aberrant 45.5 percent (10 of 29) in a 75-73 road win. It was the fifth time in the past seven meetings that the road team covered. UMKC is just 6-6 SU at home. The Bison should get payback here. They sit third in the conference and shoot a league-best 49 percent overall in Summit League play. Look for junior forward Grant Nelson (17.2 ppg, 8.7 rpg) -- who's recorded four straight double-doubles -- to lead North Dakota State to its fifth cover in its last six road games.
