Starting Lineup, TV Info, Injury Updates
CORAL GABLES, Fla — The Miami Hurricanes are dealing with another home game against a Syracuse team that they can defeat.
Matthew Cleveland has gone six games in a row scoring at least 20 points and looks to continue that streak. The team will still be without their star guard Nijel Pack. He is out of his walking boot but has yet to participate in warmups this season. There is still no timetable for him to return to the lineup as they prepare to take on the Orange.
Syracuse guard Chance Westry is questionable with an undisclosed injury while forward Donnie Freeman is out and set to undergo foot surgery.
