No. 19 Kansas visits NC State after White's 20-point game

On Saturday in Raleigh, North Carolina State Wolfpack will aim for its first signature win under first-year coach Will Wade at 5:30 p.m. EST against the Kansas Jayhawks before a sold-out crowd.
Because the Wolfpack are 0-3 vs major-conference teams, NC State has looked improved from last season's 12-19 record with five players in double figures, led by Darrion Williams at 15.9 points.
Statistically, NC State ranks third in the ACC, scoring 88.8 points with 50.2% shooting and averaging 10.6 made 3-pointers against Kansas's 6.6 allowed, while holding a 6-0 home record.
Led by White, Kansas has won four of five games since that loss to the Blue Devils, most recently an 80-60 victory over Missouri last Sunday, and is 0-1 on the road.
Defensively, NC State held Liberty to a season-low in an 85-45 win Wednesday, limiting the Flames to 21.4% from three and forcing 17 turnovers, while Kansas aims to avoid a sweep by Research Triangle programs.
