Elon Phoenix vs George Washington Colonials prediction, odds and best bet for Nov. 10

Game time: November 10, 2026 at 7:00 PM ET

Venue: Charles E. Smith Center — Washington, DC

Article updated Nov 9, 10:36 PM EST

By SportsJaw Editorial Team

George Washington is the pick to beat Elon 82-70, with its early shooting efficiency and broad rotation giving the home team the stronger winning case. Elon's productive frontcourt and offensive rebounding make the 14.5-point spread a tougher call. Neither the supplied spread nor the 148.5 total offers a convincing betting edge, so the official SportsJaw recommendation is Pass.

Elon Phoenix vs George Washington Colonials prediction and best bet

George Washington gets the nod because its shooting offers a credible route to separation. The Colonials enter with a 60.4% effective field-goal percentage and 45.8% three-point shooting, according to their Nov. 9 official preview. At home, that scoring profile earns a narrow preference in the forecast.

The best betting decision is Pass. Elon's rebounding and efficient frontcourt make taking the points tempting, but both teams' numbers cover just two games. Projecting a 12-point George Washington win leaves Elon inside the spread without creating enough confidence to make Elon +14.5 (-113) an official wager.

Elon Phoenix outlook

Elon's Nov. 8 official preview highlights a substantial rebounding contribution to its start. In the 74-65 home win over UNCG on Nov. 6, the Phoenix won the boards 45-22 and offensive rebounds 14-3. That produced a 10-2 advantage in second-chance points, while the bench supplied 29 points.

Josh Dalton has led Elon in scoring in both games, averaging 17.5 points on 59.1% shooting. Dalton and Hunter Harding have combined for 29.0 points and 12.5 rebounds per game, making 23 of 37 shots. Their production gives Elon a scoring option beyond matching George Washington from three-point range.

Raúl Villar has 12 assists and two turnovers, including seven assists without a turnover at Columbia. Elon has assisted on 33 of its 60 field goals. Those results encourage confidence in its ball movement, although maintaining that execution in this matchup remains part of the projection.

George Washington Colonials outlook

George Washington followed its opening victory with a 75-61 home win over Hampton on Nov. 7. Jean Aranguren contributed 17 points and four assists. Dylan James finished with 15 points on 6-for-6 shooting, nine rebounds and four blocks, providing production across several parts of the game.

The rotation has been broad: George Washington reports 10 players averaging at least 15 minutes and bench players accounting for 43.6% of its minutes. Eight players are shooting at least 40%. That distribution gives the forecast more than one individual scoring performance to lean on.

Still, the early percentages need perspective. George Washington's 45.8% three-point shooting is an encouraging start, not a dependable expectation for every game. A colder perimeter performance would put greater pressure on its other scoring options and make a large winning margin harder to reach.

Key matchup factors

The central question is whether Elon's second chances can offset George Washington's shotmaking. Offensive rebounds could allow the Phoenix to survive a weaker shooting night. George Washington can reduce that opportunity by completing defensive stops, but its rebounding figures are not supplied here, so this is a matchup question rather than a verified advantage for either side.

Elon's early control of games also deserves attention. The Phoenix have a 79-50 first-half scoring advantage and have trailed for only 29 seconds through two games. That makes a competitive opening plausible; it does not make another comfortable start inevitable.

Rotation size alone will not decide the outcome. George Washington's use of its bench offers lineup options, while Elon's 29 bench points against UNCG show that the visitors have also received meaningful reserve scoring.

Elon Phoenix vs George Washington Colonials spread prediction

Spread recommendation: Pass on Elon +14.5 (-113) and George Washington -14.5 (-104). The projected margin favors Elon against the number, but the small early-season sample makes that preference fragile.

Elon's frontcourt efficiency and rebounding offer a reasonable cover scenario. George Washington's shooting creates the opposite risk: a few productive stretches could push the margin beyond two touchdowns. The forecast's 2.5-point cushion against the spread is too modest to justify a wager given that uncertainty.

Elon Phoenix vs George Washington Colonials total prediction

Total recommendation: Pass on Over 148.5 (-110) and Under 148.5 (-110). The projected 152 points sits above the line, with George Washington's shooting and Elon's frontcourt production supplying the scoring case.

Confidence in that total is limited by the lack of supported possession-rate and broader defensive figures. Offensive rebounds can produce additional attempts, but they do not automatically imply a faster game. The shooting results are promising enough to resist an Under recommendation, yet too brief to make the Over an official play.

Elon Phoenix vs George Washington Colonials Projected Score & Betting Picks

Projected score: George Washington Colonials 82, Elon Phoenix 70. George Washington's shooting and rotation support the home-win forecast. Elon's rebounding and Villar's efficient playmaking form the strongest counterargument, particularly if the Colonials' perimeter shooting cools.

Confidence: low. The forecast favors George Washington, but two games per team leave considerable uncertainty around both the margin and scoring pace. Official SportsJaw wager: Pass.
