The Broncos will look to slow down the duo as they try and deal the Bulldogs a second straight upset loss.
The Broncos come into Monday fresh off their first win of the year as they beat Davenport 86-46 on Thursday night.
That win came after they lost a close game on the road against Coastal Carolina on Monday night in their season-opener.
They trailed the Chanticleers in that game by 10 at halftime, but would close the gap to just one with 11:08 left in the game. Unfortunately for the Broncos they wouldn’t score for over six minutes and it was too much to overcome.
The Broncos have three players averaging double figures through two games with Markhi Stickland and JaVaughn Hannah leading the way by scoring 11.5 points per game. Donovan Williams is right behind them at 10.5 points per game.
