ACC Basketball tournament bracket: Full TV schedule, scores, results for 2024 championship – The Fayetteville Observer

The ACC men’s basketball tournament is returning to the nation’s capital.
North Carolina is the 1-seed in the conference tournament for the first time since 2017. Hubert Davis’ team, who locked up the regular season title on Saturday with a win over Duke, enters the ACC tournament at 25-6 overall and 17-3 in the ACC. Senior guard R.J. Davis has continued to play some of his best basketball heading into the postseason, averaging 19.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.5 assists across the last six games.
The Blue Devils are the 2-seed and the likely fit to give North Carolina a run for its money if both meet up in Saturday’s championship game. If the Tar Heels and the Blue Devils do meet up in the title game, it would be the first time since 2011.

Though Jon Scheyer’s squad ultimately fell short against the Tar Heels in the regular season final, Duke has been playing great basketball the last three months only losing three games since the start of January. Sophomore forward Kyle Filipowski, who was named a finalist for the Karl Malone award last week, is top 10 in the ACC in scoring (16.7 ppg), rebounding (8.0 rpg), field goal percentage (50.4%) and blocks (50).
While North Carolina and Duke have their spots in the NCAA Tournament locked up, this week’s ACC tournament is crucial for three other programs — Virginia, Wake Forest and Pittsburgh — who hope to go dancing. ESPN bracketologist Joe Lunardi currently has Virginia as one of his “last four in” and playing in next week’s First Four in Dayton. A win on Thursday against either Clemson, Boston College or Miami would put the Cavaliers in the field of 68 according to Lunardi. As for the other two, Lunardi has them slated as one of his “next four out” meaning this week’s conference tournament could be make or break for the Demon Deacons and Panthers.
