Charlotte 49ers Set to Host Tulsa Golden Hurricane in Dale F. Halton Arena Basketball Showdown
As the Charlotte 49ers prepare to welcome the Tulsa Golden Hurricane to the Dale F. Halton Arena, fans are anticipating an exciting matchup in men's basketball. The 49ers have shown a strong performance trend, especially when playing on their home court.
In their last home game, the 49ers dominated with a commanding victory over Greensboro Pride, scoring an impressive 91 points while holding their opponents to just 44. Their offensive prowess was on full display as they shot approximately 55 percent from the field and an outstanding 81 percent from the free-throw line. They also excelled beyond the arc with a solid three-point percentage of approximately 41.
Defensively, Charlotte was just as formidable; they racked up a total of thirteen steals and forced twenty turnovers from Greensboro Pride, converting those into thirty-nine points off turnovers—a testament to their aggressive defense and fast-paced transition game.
However, it's worth noting that in one of their recent away games against Richmond Spiders at Robins Center, Charlotte struggled slightly more but still managed to keep it competitive despite falling short by eight points. Their field goal percentage dipped to around 35 percent and three-point shooting was less effective at approximately 29 percent.
The upcoming game promises another opportunity for Charlotte to capitalize on its strengths—particularly its high-scoring offense and ability to convert defensive plays into easy baskets. With home-court advantage once again at Dale F. Halton Arena—a venue known for its vibrant atmosphere that often energizes the home team—the Charlotte faithful will be looking forward to another standout performance.
Fans can catch all the action live on ESPN+ when these two teams face off on January 11th at midnight Eastern Time (ET).
