Hubert Davis and the Tar Heels will take to the floor at Memphis in the first annual Hoops for St. Jude Tip-Off Classic on Tuesday evening. All proceeds from the preseason charity exhibition will benefit St. Jude Children’s Hospital.

If you aren’t making the trip to Memphis for the game, here’s how you can follow along at home:

Broadcast Schedule

Those hoping to listen on the radio can do so at 97.9 FM and 1360 AM, or by streaming the radio broadcast on chapelboro.com.

97.9 The Hill’s radio broadcast of the game will begin at 6 p.m. with the Tar Heel Sports Network’s pregame coverage until tip-off. They will also carry postgame coverage for approximately an hour after the conclusion of the game.

For preseason, regular season and ACC Tournament game broadcasts, you can access the stream (computer, tablet or phone) through chapelboro.com, TuneIN or most streaming apps, but you must be within 75 miles of Chapel Hill and have your location services for your device turned on. If you live more than 75 miles outside of Chapel Hill, you can access the Tar Heel Sports Network game broadcast stream through the Varsity Network.

TV Schedule

Television coverage of the game begins with tip-off at 7 p.m. The game will be broadcast on ESPNU. As of today, Spectrum, AT&T, Dish Network, Xfinity and DirecTV all carry ESPNU.

What if I don’t have cable?

A live stream will be available on ESPN’s digital platforms.

Additionally, several cord-cutting options carry ESPNU.

YouTube TV costs $73/month and carries the entire ESPN family of channels, including ESPNU.

Hulu TV starts at $76/month and includes ESPNU, but does not carry MLB Network, NBA TV or NFL Red Zone.

Sling TV is the cheapest at $40/month for the Orange package. Be sure to avoid Sling Blue, as that package does not include ESPN.
