St. Francis (PA) and Chicago State meet Monday, February 9, 2026, at the Jones Convocation Center in Chicago, with NEC TV carrying the game. It’s a conference matchup between two teams that have lived on thin margins all year, which is why the number is basically telling you this is a one-possession game late.

Navy heads to Lewisburg on Monday evening for a Patriot League road game that’s priced like a mismatch. The Midshipmen are 19-6 and laying 6.5 at Sojka Pavilion, while Bucknell is 8-17 and catching points at home. CBSS has the broadcast at 6:00 PM ET, and the total is sitting at 133.5, which fits the idea of a controlled, possession-by-possession conference game.

The Philadelphia 76ers wrap up a five game Western road trip tonight at the Moda Center, looking to build on a high note before heading back East. Philadelphia has been locked in lately, winning six of their last seven games and posting a 3-1 record on this current swing. A win here would consolidate their position in the top six of the Eastern Conference, as they currently sit 2.5 games clear of the play-in mess. Portland has finally found some footing after a miserable stretch. The Trail Blazers snapped a six game losing streak by taking two straight from the Memphis Grizzlies over the weekend. They managed a 122-115 win on Saturday night thanks to a dominant fourth quarter, but
