The 2025 ACC men’s basketball tournament kicks off in Charlotte, N.C., this week. Games begin on Tuesday, March 11, and end with the championship on Saturday, March 15.
NC State won the ACC Tournament last year as a No. 10 seed, their first title since 1987, so it’s safe to say that we should expect the unexpected in the postseason. Still, it’s worth noting that the No. 2 Duke Blue Devils have been on fire all season and are widely considered the best ACC squad. Can the field take down Cooper Flagg and Co.?

ACC Men’s Basketball Tournament Schedule
The ACC Tournament kicks off Tuesday, March 11, at 2 p.m. ET on the ACC Network. The final will be televised on ESPN at 8:30 p.m. EST on March 15.
Let March officially begin 🏆
