FSU (6-1) seeks a fourth straight win on Tuesday night when the Seminoles host Western Carolina at 7 p.m. The game will stream live on ACC Network Extra.

This game was originally scheduled to be played in Asheville but was moved back to Tallahassee due to Hurricane Helene. The game will be a fundraiser for the MANNA FoodBank in Asheville, N.C., which lost its warehouse in the hurricane. More information can be found at mannafoodbank.org. Every $1 donated on donate.mannafoodbank.org allows MANNA to provide 4 meals.

Tickets are $10 and can be purchased at Seminoles.com. All seating is general admission, except for locations on the floor and for those in the first four rows of section 101. Parking will be available at no charge in the main lot at the Tucker Center.

The junior has scored in double figures in a career-high four consecutive games (10 vs. Florida, 13 vs. Hofstra, 15 vs. Temple, 17 vs. UMass) and is averaging 13.8 points scored per game (55 total points). He has already scored nearly three times as many points in seven games as a Seminoles as he did in 14 games during his only season at Ole Miss (20 in 14 games).

Western Carolina's coach is a familiar name. Tim Craft is a Tallahassee native who attended North Florida Christian and Florida High.

The Catamounts are 2-2. They lost to Wake Forest 82-69, picking up wins against two lower-division schools in Bob Jones and Truett McConnell.

FSU is projected by KenPom to win 82-63.
