Tennessee basketball to play North Carolina State

Tennessee basketball to play North Carolina State in 2023.

The 2023-24 basketball campaign will be Tennessee’s ninth under head coach Rick Barnes.

Tennessee will play North Carolina State on Dec. 16 at AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas.

“Our program has participated in several Hall of Fame events in recent years, and they have always been wonderful experiences for our team,” Barnes said in a press release. “We expect the same caliber of experience when we travel to San Antonio — a great city that knows and loves basketball — to test ourselves against a really talented and well-coached NC State program. Our associate head coach, Justin Gainey, is an NC State grad and was a great point guard for the Wolfpack under Herb Sendek, and growing up in Hickory, North Carolina, I’m very familiar with NC State’s rich basketball history.”
