Davidson Wildcats
Davidson has overall had a solid start to their 2018-2019 season. Coming in at 9-3, the Wildcats will play one final non-conference game before starting conference play. If the Wildcats can manage to upset North Carolina, it will certainly give them confidence going into the New Year.
The Wildcats offense is based around their ability to move the ball around. They have three different players scoring in double-digits. They also do a very good job at the free throw line and are shooting 76.7% as a team. Look for the Wildcats to slow this game down in hopes they can hang around with the Tar Heels.

The Wildcats defense has done a good job to limit their opponents this year. They allow an average of 68.2 points per game. They allow their opponents to shoot just 41.2% from the field. The only way for Davidson to have a chance to win this game is to limit the Tar Heels second chance points.
North Carolina Tar Heels
North Carolina has been tested early this season, losing to Texas, Michigan and Kentucky. However, they picked up good wins against UCLA and Gonzaga.
The Tar Heels offensive production is among the best in the entire country. They average 92.3 points per game, which is 4th in the country. They also rebound the ball exceptionally well, averaging 44.9 rebounds per game, which is also 4th in the country. As long as they are able to out-rebound the Wildcats, they should have no trouble picking up another home win.

The Tar Heels defense has for the most part been solid this season. There are of course a few game where they did not play well, but overall they have been good. Going up against a Davidson team that only scores in the 70’s on average should play in the Tar Heels favor. North Carolina will need to limit the Wildcats trips to the free throw line, given that Davidson is very good from there.
