Ball State Cardinals

Ball State Cardinals are now carrying a 12-9 record and they hope to stay afloat in the tournament. They don’t have a good road record as they won three of their last four games. It will be a tough match for them and they will try to ride with Teague and El-Amin to lead them. Teague does 15.4 points, 9 rebounds, 2.2 blocks and 1.6 steals while El-Amin contributes 14 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists. But if they want to have a good chance to steal this game on the road, the x-factor will be Mallers to help Teague and El-Amin space out the floor.
