Queens is a 1.5-point favorite over Winthrop in a 9 a.m. rematch of last year's marathon game. Both rosters are almost fully rebuilt, and a 165.5 total asks two new groups to hold a fast pace before lunch.

Injury Report
No injury absence was publicly reported for either team in the pregame previews reviewed. The bigger availability question is roster turnover. Winthrop lost its full starting group, including center Logan Duncomb to Notre Dame, and Queens returns one starter plus a handful of reserves. Minutes are likely to be spread widely in a first game, which makes rotation roles and player props less predictable than usual. Check official lineups at tip.
Key Players
Key Matchup Edge
Queens has the one proven interior scorer in Parker, a 67 percent finisher, while Winthrop must replace the size it lost when Duncomb left. If the 6-foot-10 Natsvlishvili cannot slow Parker around the rim, the Royals have the more reliable half-court offense in a game priced as a coin flip.
3 Things to Watch
- Avantae Parker's efficiency against new Winthrop size
- Corbin Pack's three-point volume in his Division I debut
- Whether early pace supports a 165.5 total
Betting Breakdown
Queens is a 1.5-point favorite over Winthrop with a total of 165.5 in the 9 a.m. game of the Field of 68 Opening Day Marathon in Rock Hill. Both programs are coming off big seasons. Winthrop went 23-11 and lost the Big South title game to High Point, while Queens went 21-14, won the ASUN Tournament and reached its first NCAA Tournament before losing to Purdue. Very little of either team remains. Winthrop lost its entire starting group, including center Logan Duncomb, and Queens returns only senior forward Avantae Parker as a starter. That leaves the market pricing two new rotations, and the short spread shows it. The biggest edge on paper is Parker, who shot 67 percent last season, against a Winthrop frontcourt led by North Dakota transfer George Natsvlishvili. Both teams like to play fast, and Winthrop ranked among the top 30 in possessions last season, but an early tip and new lineups are reasons for caution on the high total. Winthrop won this same marathon matchup 81-74 a year ago.
Winthrop Betting Outlook
Winthrop opens 0-0 under Mark Prosser with a roster that looks nothing like the group that went 13-3 in the Big South. No starters return, and the only holdovers with real minutes are Seifeldin Hendawy, who averaged 5.7 points and 4.2 rebounds, and reserve Tai Hamilton. The Eagles need George Natsvlishvili, a 6-foot-10 senior from North Dakota, to give them a presence inside after Logan Duncomb transferred to Notre Dame. Prosser's teams push the pace, so Winthrop should create possessions, but early-season shot quality is the concern. As a 1.5-point underdog, the Eagles are getting almost nothing, and backing them is mostly a bet on Prosser's system holding up with new pieces.
Queens U Betting Outlook
Queens opens 0-0 under Grant Leonard after the best season in its short Division I history, which ended with an ASUN Tournament title and a first NCAA Tournament bid. Avantae Parker is the anchor, a senior forward who averaged 11.1 points and 5.3 rebounds while shooting 67 percent. The Royals also added Wingate transfer Corbin Pack, a 6-foot-5 guard who made 69 threes and shot 40 percent from deep at the Division II level. Isaiah Henry is the other notable holdover. Laying 1.5 points is effectively a moneyline bet, and Queens has the clearer go-to option. The risk is depth: outside Parker, most of the rotation is still unproven at this level.
