Memphis sustained a serious injury, as Tyrese Hunter (13.7 PPG and 40.1 3PT%) is officially out for Sunday's game.

The Tigers didn't cover in either previous conference tourney game and are 2-4 ATS in their last six games. UAB covered in both of their tourney games and has covered in five of its last seven. The Blazers (31st in offensive efficiency) take care of the basketball and collect offensive rebounds at an elite level (seventh nationally in offensive rebound rate and top 5 in turnover rate over their last 10 games). They're top-ten in these metrics throughout the whole season, as well.
