No. 3 Auburn basketball returns to the hardwood on Tuesday after its stunning 83-81 win over No. 5 Iowa State in the first round of the Maui Invitational. Next up for the Tigers is a battle with No. 13 North Carolina with a trip to the championship game on the line.

The No. 3 Auburn Tigers (5-0) battle the No. 13 North Carolina Tar Heels (4-1) Tuesday night in the Maui Invitational. Tip-off from the Lahaina Civic Center in Lahaina, Hawaii, is scheduled for 11 p.m.

UNC hasn’t shown much consistency on the defensive end under Hubert Davis. This team has a ton of potential, but there’s also volatility in their performance from game to game, whereas Auburn looks like a great team on both ends of the court.
