How To Watch

What to Know

Hawaii will be in front of their home fans on Sunday, but a look at the spread shows they might need that home-court advantage. The Hawaii Warriors and the TCU Horned Frogs will face off at 6:30 p.m. ET on December 24th at SimpliFI Arena at Stan Sheriff Center without much rest after finishing up games yesterday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.

Last Friday, the Warriors couldn't handle the Yellow Jackets and fell 73-68.

Even though the team lost, they still had their share of impressive performances. One of the most dominant came from Bernardo da Silva, who scored 17 points along with five rebounds. The team also got some help courtesy of JoVon McClanahan, who scored 19 points along with eight assists.

Meanwhile, it's hard to win when your three-point shooting is a whole 25.7% worse than the opposition, a fact TCU found out the hard way on Friday. They took a 88-75 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Wolf Pack.

Emanuel Miller put forth a good effort for the losing side as he scored 24 points along with eight rebounds. He continues to roll, besting his previous point total in each of the last three games he's played.

The Warriors' defeat dropped their record down to 8-3. As for the Horned Frogs, their loss dropped their record down to 9-2.

Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as the two teams are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Hawaii hasn't had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 76.3 points per game. However, it's not like TCU struggles in that department as they've been averaging 88.5 points per game. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can run the score up higher.
