NJIT Highlanders (0-3) vs American Eagles (1-2)
Saturday, November 19, 2022 at 4:00 pm
NJIT returns home after starting the season with three consecutive road games and my math model favors the Highlanders by 1.44 in this game. NJIT possesses a veteran-laden frontcourt led by seniors Miles Coleman and Souleymane Diakite. Coleman averaged 15.6 points and 5.7 rebounds per game last season and currently leads the team in scoring with 15.0 points per game. Diakite has made a huge leap in production from last season (5.2 ppg) as the 6’9” forward is currently second on the team in scoring with 13.3 points per game (85.0% FG%). Senior Kevin Osawe has been a force on the boards, averaging a team-high 7.0 rebounds per game in 2022-23. NJIT head coach Brian Kennedy signed the program’s first-ever Rivals top-150 recruit in Paul McMillan IV, who scored the sixth-most points in Ohio high school history. The talented freshman joins Marist transfer Raheim Sullivan in the backcourt. Grab the point(s) with NJIT and invest with confidence.
