PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Ben Bentil had 19 points and 12 rebounds, and No. 14 Providence beat Rider 73-65 on Saturday night in the Friars' second straight game with star Kris Dunn.

Jalen Lindsey added 13 points and 13 rebounds for Providence (11-1), and fellow sophomore Rodney Bullock had 16 points and 11 boards.

Rider's Jimmy Taylor scored 22 points.

Dunn missed his second consecutive game with a stomach virus. He practiced on and off during the week, and then sat on the bench in black sweats during the game.
