Green Bay +25 starts with making Cincinnati earn its points against a set defense. The Phoenix committed 9 turnovers against Illinois State in their final exhibition and 9 against Division III Lawrence in Monday's opener.
Cincinnati shot 8-for-27 from three and committed 13 turnovers against American on Monday. Fewer Green Bay giveaways would make Cincinnati rely more on half-court execution to build a large lead.
Marcus Hall gives Green Bay an established shooter to keep answering at the other end. He averaged 13.9 points and hit 40.6% from three last season.
Ahmere Carson scored 29 on 11-for-14 shooting against Marquette in an exhibition, then had 11 points in the exhibition win over Illinois State.
