Wake Forest Demon Deacons Preview
With losses in each of their last six games, the Wake Forest Demon Deacons sit in 14th place of the ACC. They are scoring just under 66 points per game, well below the NCAA average.
As they try to snap their losing streak, the Demon Deacons will have the benefit of a home-court advantage.
Regardless, the Wake Forest Demon Deacons will need to get to the basket often if they are going to keep pace with this strong Georgia Tech squad.
Key Player - Daivien Williamson
As the leading scorer for the Wake Forest Demon Deacons, junior Daivien Williams will need a huge performance if his team is going to pull off an upset.
The 6'1" guard is scoring a career-high 12.4 points per game while also recording an impressive 1.5 steals per game on the defensive end.
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons are going to need someone to bring the spark on Friday, and Daivien Williamson must rise to the occasion.

Georgia Tech vs Wake Forest Prediction
With the clear advantage in this matchup, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets just need to keep their consistent play and take care of business on the road. The Wake Forest Demon Deacons have talented players, but they have been unable to put together the winning formula.
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets should come out of the gates fast and bury the Wake Forest Demon Deacons on their way to six straight wins.
