Happy Friday, basketball fans.

On Thursday, we went 3-2.

On the seasn, we now stand at 152-143-4. Be sure to follow all of our picks at BetStamp throughout the season.

Just four games on the card tonight. Let’s finish the week strong and grab some Friday wins.

IUPUI Jaguars at Green Bay Phoenix

IUPUI has struggled all season, with just four wins to this point. They now face a Green Bay team looking for its third straight victory, which would push the Phoenix above .500 on the year.

Green Bay should control most of this game, but this feels like a spot where things stay closer than expected. The Phoenix still get the win, but the Jaguars do enough to hang around and cover.

Betting Pick: IUPUI Jaguars +8.5 over Green Bay Phoenix
Final Score Pick: Green Bay 80-75 over IUPUI
