Syracuse visits the Smith Center to face North Carolina on Tuesday night, 10 days after the Orange were originally supposed to be in Chapel Hill.

COVID-related issues caused a postponement on Jan. 2, but now the Orange have been back on the court for a week and are in town facing a UNC team that has won consecutive games on essentially last-second shots by Leaky Black (versus Notre Dame) and Andrew Platek (at Miami).
