WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Wake Forest men's basketball trio Cameron Hildreth, Hunter Sallis and Efton Reid III will represent Wake Forest and the men's basketball program this week in Charlotte for ACC Tip Off, ahead of the 2024-25 basketball season.
Head coach Steve Forbes will be joining the team captains at the Hilton Uptown to preview the team, upcoming season, and expectations for the Deacs and the ACC.
Tune In
There will be two opportunities to catch Wake Forest on ACC Network during all the media events Thursday, beginning with Hildreth, Sallis and Reid at 10:30 a.m. followed by Coach Forbes at 12:30 p.m.
Fans can also follow the Deacs on Twitter and Instagram for a behind the scenes look throughout the day.
Building on Excellence
Last season, the Deacs defeated five teams that reached the NCAA Tournament including three wins over Elite Eight teams and a win over a Final Four team.
This core provided an exciting environment for Deacon Nation all year long. Wake Forest saw a resurgence in season attendance numbers this season with 164,931 fans packing Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum. This marked the highest total attendance since the 2014-15 season when Wake Forest hosted 174,336 fans during the 2014-15 season.
The 17 home wins this season are the second-most in program history, trailing just the 2021-22 season when the Demon Deacons finished with an impressive home of 18-2:
Single-Season Home Wins in Program History
For the first time since 1995-97, Wake Forest has finished with 10 or more ACC wins in three consecutive seasons. Additionally, the 34 ACC wins during that three-year period marked the most since the 2003-05 run and when the Deacons had 35 ACC wins.
Additionally with the win against Notre Dame in the ACC Tournament, Wake Forest reached the 20-win mark for the second time in the last three years. The 65 wins over the last three seasons mark the most wins in a three-year stretch since the 2002-03 to 2004-05 run.
The Deacs hold an impressive 48-7 record at home since the start of the 2021-22 season including a 17-2 mark last season, the best since having the most home wins in program history during the 2021-22 season when Wake Forest finished with a mark of 18-2.
Additionally, it is the first time since the 2008-09 season that Wake Forest has had one or fewer losses at LJVM Coliseum. The Deacs' overall wins since the start of the 2021-22 season rank second in the country and leads the ACC during that time frame:
