Why this one matters

The Rough Riders visit a Hornets squad looking to defend home court. The teams last met on Jan. 21, 2025, when Saginaw won 69-44 (game details: https://scorebooklive.com/texas/basketball/games/5298502-azle-vs-saginaw). That previous meeting could provide a subplot heading into Tuesday night, but league standings and rosters can change quickly during the season.
