• The Wildcats have won 29 of their last 32 at Belk Arena.
• The 'Cats are 60-33 in A-10 regular season play, including 14-4 last year, and 69-38 including A-10 tournament play.

LAST TIME OUT
• Jon Axel Gudmundsson had a double-double (30 pts, 10 rebs) and Luka Brajkovic added 17 points as Davidson got past Saint Joseph's in overtime, 89-83, Saturday at Belk Arena.
• The Hawks' Ryan Daly redirected a pass into a desperation 3-pointer at the buzzer to tie the score at 76-76 and force the extra period.
• The Wildcats, who never trailed in overtime, led by as many as 15 on separate occasions in the second before St. Joe's chipped away at the deficit.
• Davidson had a chance to secure the win late in regulation, but went just 2-of-6 from the line in the final minute.
LAST TIME VS. RICHMOND
• In addition to Jon Axel Gudmundsson's game-high 22 points, Luka Brajkovic recorded his fifth double-double with 16 points and 10 rebounds, to lead Davidson in a 73-69 come-from-behind victory over Richmond, March 9, 2019 at the Robins Center.
• Kellan Grady (17) and Carter Collins (11) also scored in double figures for the Wildcats, who shot 53.1 percent and went 17-of-21 at the charity stripe.
• Richmond extended the margin back to double digits, 59-49, with 9:18 to play, but the Wildcats responded reeling off seven unanswered, sparked by a Collins' layup and triple in consecutive trips, and eventually tied the score, 63-63.
• After Jacob Gilyard's fifth 3-pointer put the Spiders back in front, 66-63, with 2:22 left, Brajkovic hit a free throw and had a pair of putbacks as part of a 9-1 stretch to give Davidson the lead for good.
• Brajkovic's layup with 45 seconds remaining, gave the Wildcats their first advantage since it was 3-2 a minute and 10 seconds into the contest.
• Grant Golden led the way for Richmond with 20 points, while Gilyard added 17.
• The opening half was a game of runs as the two teams exchanged 12-3 spurts to find themselves deadlocked, 15-15. After Richmond grabbed its largest lead 34-23 with 2:45 left in the period, the Wildcats closed on a 9-2 run, including the last seven to cut the deficit to 36-32 at the break.
