PRINCETON AT HARVARD:
Two-and-a-half games out with five more to play, barring a road sweep of Yale and Harvard, the Tigers look to be fighting for a CIT bid. That’s not to say the Crimson will underestimate Mitch Henderson’s squad. Amaker admitted Wednesday the team adjusts more for Princeton’s offense than any other in the league, showcasing the on-ball pressure needed to deny Princeton’s quirky offense of backdoor cuts and three-point barrages.
Harvard begins a tough four-game stretch here against the rest of the league’s top five—anything less than 3-1, and it will be watching at home come NCAA Tournament time. If last weekend showed anything, however, it’s that this team embraces such moments.
Pick: Harvard
