The University of Miami men’s basketball team will play its last road game of the regular season Saturday night.


Miami (14-13, 6-11 ACC) meets Georgia Tech at 8 p.m. at McCamish Pavilion in Atlanta to wrap up a three-game road swing.


The action will be televised live on ACC Network, with Mike Monaco and Dalen Cuff on the call. Joe Zagacki will have the radio broadcast on 560 The Joe WQAM.


Miami sports a 14-9 all-time record versus the Yellow Jackets, including a 7-5 ledger on the road and a 7-3 mark under ninth-year head coach Jim Larrañaga. Most recently, the Hurricanes tallied an 80-65 home victory on Feb. 23, 2019, tied for their largest league win of the 2018-19 campaign.


In its last outing, Miami dropped an 87-71 result Sunday night against Notre Dame at Purcell Pavilion in Notre Dame, Ind., snapping a three-game winning streak. Freshman guards Harlond Beverly and Isaiah Wong had 12 points apiece, as did senior guard Dejan Vasiljevic. Redshirt senior forward Keith Stone added 10 points in the setback.


Georgia Tech is 14-14 (8-9 ACC) on the season after winning five straight home affairs and three of its past four games overall. Sophomore guard Michael Devoe is the team’s leading scorer at 16.0 points per game. The Yellow Jackets were picked No. 12 in the ACC preseason poll after posting a 14-18 (6-12) record last year.


After playing Georgia Tech, Miami returns to Coral Gables for a two-game homestand to conclude the regular season, first hosting the defending national champion, Virginia, March 4 at 9 p.m., live on ACC Network.
