In their last game against the Rainbow Warriors, the Yellow Jackets secured a win with 73 points, showcasing an impressive 52 percent two-point shooting accuracy. Their defensive prowess was evident as they collected 46 rebounds and blocked four shots. However, turnovers were an area of concern as they gave up possession nine times.


The previous matchup saw them maintain consistency with another 73-point finish against the Minutemen. Their shooting remained reliable with a nearly identical field goal percentage of 49 percent from their previous game. The team demonstrated an aggressive approach on fast breaks, scoring 23 points but struggled with ball control leading to a high turnover count of 21.


In one of their more challenging games that went into overtime against the Nittany Lions, Georgia Tech emerged victorious scoring 82 points. They showed exceptional teamwork with an impressive tally of 25 assists and dominated inside by scoring 42 points in the paint while grabbing an outstanding total of 54 rebounds.


The venue for this upcoming match is known for its vibrant atmosphere which could provide an additional edge for Georgia Tech. With strong offensive stats but areas needing improvement such as turnovers and three-point efficiency, it's clear that maintaining possession and capitalizing on scoring opportunities will be crucial factors for success.


Fans can catch all the action on January 6th at Hank McCamish Pavilion in Atlanta or tune into ESPN Networks to watch these two teams battle it out on court starting at 9 PM Eastern Time.
