High Point vs Gardner-Webb 2/2/22 College Basketball Picks, Predictions, Odds

The Gardner-Webb Bulldogs and the High Point Panthers meet in college basketball action from the Nido and Mariana Qubein Arena on Wednesday night.

The Gardner-Webb Bulldogs will look to build on back-to-back wins after a 61-42 win over Radford last time out. D’Maurian Williams leads the Bulldogs in scoring with 14.4 PPG along with 5 RPG while Lance Terry has 13.8 PPG and Kareem Reid has 10.3 PPG with a team-high 5.6 RPG to lead the Bulldogs on the glass while also rounding out the trio of double-digit scorers for Gardner-Webb so far this season. Jordan Sears also has 8.2 PPG with a team-high 2.5 APG to lead the Bulldogs in the assist department this season. Anthony Selden also has 7.7 PPG of his own while Zion Williams has 5.7 RPG of his own on the year. As a team, Gardner-Webb is averaging 70.7 PPG on 44.7% shooting from the field, 32.6% from three and 70.6% from the foul line while allowing 64.3 PPG on 38.9% shooting from the field and 27.3% from three this season.


The High Point Panthers will try to bounce back after a 77-72 road loss to Campbell last time out. John-Michael Wright leads the Panthers in scoring and assists with 19.1 PPG and 3.8 APG along with 4 RPG while Zack Austin has 14 PPG with a team-high 8 RPG to lead the Panthers on the glass. Jaden House has 11.3 PPG with 4.5 RPG to make up the trio of double-digit scorers for High Point so far this season. As a team, High Point is averaging 69.2 PPG on 43.4% shooting from the field, 35% from three and 63.1% from the foul line while allowing 69.5 PPG on 42.9% shooting from the field and 31% from three this season.

Gardner-Webb is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games and 6-15 ATS in their last 21 games against a team with a losing record while the under is 12-3-1 in their last 16 road games. High Point is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home games and 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games against a team with a winning record while the under is 9-3 in their last 12 home games.

I get the case to be made either way here, as both teams have had inconsistencies this season and have been up and down as of late. However, the Panthers have done their best work at home this season and while Gardner-Webb’s got the win over a power team in Georgia and has a couple of conference road wins this season, High Point’s been almost unbeatable at home as of late and I think there’s value getting the free bucket with the home team here.
