-- Winners of three straight and five of their last six, the Wildcats enter 17-9 overall and 9-6 in A-10 play, following a 65-54 win over Rhode Island.
-- Over their last six games, the Wildcats are shooting 41.3 percent from 3-point range, while holding a +5.5 margin on the glass.
-- Jack Gibbs leads Davidson averaging 25.0 points per game, which is third nationally behind James Daniel (Howard) and Buddy Hield (Oklahoma).
-- Gibbs also ranks among league leaders in scoring (1st), assists (4th/4.8), 3-point field goals per game (5th/2.8), steals (6th/1.7) and free-throw percentage (8th/.838).
-- Gibbs has scored at least 40 points in a game three times this season, 35 or more seven times and hit the 30-point mark nine times.
-- The only player with more 40-point games in a season over the last six years is Jimmer Fredette (BYU; 2010-11).
-- Peyton Aldridge (15.2) and Brian Sullivan (14.0) are also averaging double figures for the Wildcats.
-- Aldridge paces the club in double-doubles (4), rebounding (6.8) and free-throw percentage (.850).
-- In 24 out of 26 contests this season, a Wildcat has gone over the 20-point plateau.
-- As a team, Davidson ranks 12th nationally in assist-turnover ratio (1.51), 15th in 3-point field goals per game (9.8) and 17th in free-throw shooting (.755).
-- A win would give the Wildcats double-digit league victories for the 22nd time under head coach Bob McKillop.
-- Davidson competed in the Southern Conference for 74 years before officially joining the A-10 in July of 2014.
-- The Wildcats have won four straight (3 - SoCon, 1 - A-10) regular season conference championships.
