Elite College Basketball Pick of the Month 2/23

Today at 2:00 pm est I have my first college basketball pick of the season. Earlier in the week I had my NBA pick of the month and that bet won easily! Listen up if you are ready to win BIG!

The Marist Red Foxes (10-2 at home) look to continue their dominance at McCann Arena as they host the Niagara Purple Eagles in a key MAAC showdown. Fresh off an 89-81 victory over Canisius—highlighted by Josh Pascarelli’s stellar 31-point performance—Marist aims to solidify its position in the conference.

Marist’s Efficient Offense vs. Niagara’s Defensive Struggles

Marist is averaging 68.6 points per game while shooting an impressive 46.3% from the field, ranking seventh in the MAAC. Defensively, the Red Foxes allow just 64.6 points per game, making them one of the more balanced squads in the conference.

Niagara, on the other hand, has struggled in MAAC play, holding a 5-10 conference record. The Purple Eagles are allowing 71.3 points per game while opponents are shooting 46.0% against them—an area of concern heading into this matchup. Offensively, Niagara is scoring 68.2 points per game, but they’ll need a stronger defensive effort to slow down Marist’s efficient attack.

Key Players to Watch

• Marist: Josh Pascarelli continues to be the offensive catalyst, averaging 16.3 points and 3.7 rebounds per game. Elijah Lewis has also stepped up recently, contributing 10.7 points and 4.2 rebounds per game over the last 10 contests.
• Niagara: Olumide Adelodun leads the Purple Eagles with 10.2 points and 5.4 rebounds per game, while Jaeden Marshall has been in solid form, averaging 11.2 points over the past 10 games.

Recent Form: Momentum Favors Marist

• Marist (Last 10 Games): 7-3, averaging 66.4 points while holding opponents to just 63.3 points per game. The Red Foxes have also been efficient from the field, shooting 45.6%.
• Niagara (Last 10 Games): 3-7, averaging 68.6 points but struggling defensively, allowing 73.5 points per game.
