The UNC basketball program will continue participating in the Jordan Brand-sponsored Jumpman Invitational this upcoming season.

This early season non-conference showcase is the first of its kind that features four schools with both men's and women's teams facing off on the same floor on back-to-back nights.

Last season, the Tar Heel men beat Oklahoma 81-69 on the back of an electric RJ Davis performance. The senior guard had 23 points and five assists and was 5-9 from beyond the three-point line.

Courtney Banghart's squad also beat the Sooners by a score of 61-52. Deja Kelly paced the Tar Heels with 21 points and Alyssa Ustby posted a double-double, scoring 15 points and grabbing 13 rebounds.

This season, both North Carolina teams will take on Florida on the same floor in the Spectrum Center, home of the Charlotte Hornets. The men play the Gators on Tuesday, December 17, 2024, at 7 PM EST. The women will play the following night at 6:30 PM EST.

Tickets have not gone on sale yet, but for those who won't be in Charlotte so close to Christmas, you'll be able to watch both games on the ESPN networks.
