Memphis will look to continue its 10-game winning streak in a home clash with South Florida on Thursday night.
The Tigers cruised past Wichita State last weekend to improve to 15-2 on the year and 4-0 in the AAC and remain atop the conference. USF won its second conference game this past Friday over Rice to move to 9-5 on the year and 2-1 in the conference.
Memphis is undefeated at home this year with an 8-0 record, while South Florida is 1-3 away from home and 0-3 in true road games.
David Jones leads the Tigers with 20.9 points per game and 6.7 rebounds per game. While Jones has been consistently solid for Memphis, guard Jahvon Quinerly has posted impressive performances in back-to-back games with 23 points vs. Wichita State and 25 points in the 107-101 overtime win vs. UTSA last week.
USF's backcourt duo of Chris Youngblood and Selton Miguel have guided the Bulls with 14.9 points and 14.6 points per game this season. However, forward Kasean Pryor lifted South Florida over Rice with his 29 points (including 15-of-16 from the free point line) and added another 21 points four games ago against Albany.
Memphis has the clear edge on paper, though, with an offense that scores 81.8 points per game and a top-15 tempo team, per KenPom. USF, meanwhile, averages 76.4 points per game and ranks 139th in overall KenPom efficiency.
