The Davidson Wildcats face the North Carolina Tar Heels at the Dean E. Smith Center on Wednesday. Here’s all the info you need to watch.

Amidst the big names on the non-conference schedule of the North Carolina Tar Heels sit several tough matchups against mid-majors. As teams like Indiana—who beat UNC—can attest, these types of games versus quality programs can be tricky. On Wednesday, Roy Williams’ crew welcomes such a team to the Dean E. Smith Center. They’ll have their hands full as the Davidson Wildcats make their way to Chapel Hill.

North Carolina will start out at a disadvantage on Wednesday as point guard Joel Berry is out. The veteran leader for the Tar Heels suffered an ankle sprain this weekend and is recovering. That will thrust Nate Britt into the starting role. However, it also necessitates the big man group of Kennedy Meeks, Isaiah Hicks, and freshman Tony Bradley to step up. Moreover, Kenny Williams will need to continue showing out, much like he did when Berry went out on Sunday.

The task gets tougher for the Tar Heels when you look at the quality of Davidson, as well. Jack Gibbs and Peyton Aldridge average over 40 combined points per game and can light any team in the country up. Subsequently, UNC will need to be on their toes defensively without Berry on the floor.

Fans can find this game on ESPN2 on Wednesday night. Subsequently, the matchup can also be streamed online through the WatchESPN service. All you need to do is log in online or through the ESPN app using a cable or satellite subscription to access the service and stream.
