As new as the UCF Knights are to the Big 12 Conference, their next two men’s basketball opponents are almost that fresh at the Division I level.
UCF (5-2) has only two games before Dec. 14, both at home against Western Athletic Conference teams.
At 4 p.m. Sunday, it hosts California Baptist (5-3) at Addition Financial Arena. The Lancers jumped to Division I in 2018. A week later, on Dec. 8, the Knights welcome Tarleton State to Orlando. The Texans made their big-league debut in 2020.
Last time out, UCF shook off two straight losses with an 84-76 victory over Milwaukee Wednesday. Guard Darius Johnson dropped a game-high 28 points. Johnson is tied with Jordan Ivy-Curry with a team-best average of 16.9 points per game.
Cal Baptist picked up an 86-81 victory over Fresno State Wednesday. This will be the Lancers’ first true road game. Their first two contests away from home came at neutral sites. They’re led by guard Dominique Daniels Jr., who scored 20.3 points per game through November.
