Desperately needing to build a winning streak, the UNC basketball squad has back-to-back home games.
The UNC basketball home game against the Virginia Cavaliers (13-13, 6-9 ACC), which was originally scheduled to be broadcast on ESPN, will now be shown on ESPN2 when these longtime conference rivals face off at 4 p.m. ET on Saturday, as announced by the ACC on Tuesday.
Before that, fourth-year head coach Hubert Davis and the Tar Heels (15-11, 8-6 ACC) will take on Kevin Keatts and the visiting NC State Wolfpack (10-15, 3-11 ACC) at the Dean E. Smith Center at 7 p.m. ET on Wednesday (ESPN).
Overall, UNC is 3-5 since they had a four-game winning streak, which included a thrilling 63-61 victory at NC State in early January. However, the Tar Heels now have the opportunity to build on their recent 88-82 road win over Syracuse with a rivalry win in Chapel Hill, marking the first of two consecutive home games.
After the consecutive matchups against the Wolfpack and Cavaliers on Roy Williams Court, the UNC Tar Heels will have just four games left in their regular season schedule.
