Blazers vs Pirates

UAB’s explosive backcourt, led by standout guard Jamal Williams, has been driving the Blazers with high shooting efficiency, superior rebounding, and a disciplined turnover margin that puts them at a distinct advantage over the Pirates. Their relentless fast-break execution and controlled pace of play have consistently delivered points in transition, while East Carolina struggles with perimeter defense and slower ball movement. With both teams’ starters healthy and focused on early-season conference positioning, these factors collectively favor UAB to cover the -2 spread.
