Miami looks to avoid a fourth straight loss and notch a rare win over a Top-10 opponent when it hosts the Wake Forest Demon Deacons tonight.

Miami will begin its toughest stretch of the season against Wake Forest, then a trip to Duke and a home game against North Carolina. The Hurricanes have lost 19 of their last 20 games to Top 10 teams, including two this season.

The Hurricanes will be up against a Wake Forest team that is one of the best defensive squads in the country, holding foes to an ACC-low 36.8 shooting percentage.

One way Miami could hurt the Deacons is with its three-point shooting. The Hurricanes like to shoot 3s, as they average an ACC-high 20.4 per game. Get all your college basketball betting in the Bodog Sportsbook.
