About Detroit: The Titans beat Loyola 75-63 on Saturday. That was their first game since a 64-62 loss at home to Wright State on Jan. 21. … Detroit ranks first in the league in scoring offense (78.4 points per game) and seventh in scoring defense (79.1). The Raiders are eighth in offense (61.1) and first in defense (57.3). … Detroit is the only team with three players among the top 10 in the league in scoring. McCallum is first, Calliste is seventh and Minnerath is 10th. … Detroit’s opponents have committed more turnovers than any team in the league (360), and it leads the league in steals (180).
Coach Billy Donlon on Detroit: “We have to be able to handle their pressure. The one thing we did well (in the first game), especially in the first half, was we had four turnovers. They score off turnovers. That’s the difference between them scoring 60 and 80. That’s a big key. We’ve got to contain their dribble penetration and make them shoot contested 3s in order to win the game.”
