North Carolina Hosts Wyoming After Brown’s 21-Point Game

Published November 9, 2026. North Carolina welcomes Wyoming to the Dean E. Smith Center in Chapel Hill on November 10, with tipoff scheduled for 7 p.m. Eastern. The game will air on ACC Network, with radio coverage on 97.9 The Hill.

The Tar Heels improved to 2-0 with a 109-70 victory over Wofford. Brown led North Carolina with 21 points. The win followed close games against Western Carolina and Charlotte, and the matchup with Wyoming gives the team another chance to build consistency early in the season.

Rebounding remains a concern for North Carolina. Through its first two games, the Tar Heels have been out-rebounded 83-81. Cameron Fens is awaiting an eligibility ruling, while center Sayon Keita has averaged five points and three rebounds in 17 minutes per game. Keita has given up playing time to Alexandros Samodurov and Maximo Adams.

Adams, a freshman forward, has averaged 10.5 points and 7.5 rebounds, shooting 53.3% from the field and 42.9% from three-point range. North Carolina coach Michael Malone could adjust the rotation, including giving Adams more minutes, as the staff tests different lineups.

North Carolina went 18-0 at home last season and finished 24-9. Wyoming, now 2-0, was 18-15 overall and 3-10 on the road in the previous season. The Cowboys made 45.1% of their field-goal attempts and 33% of their three-point shots.
