Wake Forest Heads to Atlanta to Face Georgia Tech

The Demon Deacons are in search of a third ACC victory in conference action.
ATLANTA - Wake Forest men's basketball heads to Georgia for its first midweek contest of February, as the Demon Deacons will face Georgia Tech at McCamish Pavilion.
Tip-off is scheduled for 9 p.m. and the matchup will air nationally on the ACC Network.
Last Time Out
The Demon Deacons battled back from a 15-point deficit against No. 24 Louisville on Saturday afternoon – twice tying the game in the final minutes – but ultimately fell to the Cardinals by a final of 88-80.
Sophomore guard Juke Harris continued to shine for the Deacs, finishing with 25 points and 11 rebounds, both game highs, for his third career double-double. Harris is currently averaging 22.6 points per game through 10 conference games, which ranks second in the ACC through Saturday's early action.
Senior forward Tre'Von Spillers reached 1,000 career points at the NCAA Division I level in the contest, reaching the feat on a made free throw at the 19:39 mark of the second half. The Charleston, S.C. native contributed nine points, six rebounds and a career-high seven steals against the Cardinals.
Three other Deacs posted 10 or more points on Saturday: junior forward Omaha Biliew (14), sophomore guard Sebastian Akins (12) and junior guard Myles Colvin (10).
Deacs In ACC Play
Wake Forest's 49 total wins in ACC play since the beginning of the 2021-22 season are fifth-most in the conference during that span.
Turning Them Over
Wake Forest's active defense has recorded 331 turnovers so far this season, tied for second-most in the ACC through this past weekend's action.
