Betting on Rio: Nigeria (+10.5) v. Croatia

After a horrible opening game, the Nigerians had respectable performances against Spain and Lithuania, losing to each by only 9. They have a strong front court led by 6'9 Ike Diogu, who leads all Olympic players in rebounds per game, and 6'11 Adele Aminu. They also have NBA draftee Michael Gbinije, who has been quiet thus far but is due for a big game.

Croatia has been propelled by unbelievable shooting from Bojan Bogdanovic, who leads all scorers with 24.7 points per game. He is a good player, but that level of production won't continue for much longer.

Look for Nigeria to cover spread tonight against Croatia.
