The Bradley Braves may struggle in Missouri Valley play this season, and a rise in the standings this year will be contingent upon the continued development of Omari Grier (10.4 points per game). The good news is the that Braves landed a top 100 recruit in freshman forward Josh Cunningham, who is expected to step in and make an immediate contribution. Texas Arlington went from the WAC Conference to the Sun Belt last season, and had a mediocre 15-17 campaign last year. The Mavericks scored well a last season, but their top two players that averaged 37 points per game between them, or about half the teams scoring, are now departed. UT Arlington will struggle early as they lost their top two go-to players that had the ball in their hands most of the time. New roles and leadership will have to surface, but I doubt we see enough of that in game one against a better team. Lay the points on Bradley.
