NEW ORLEANS – In search of road victory No. 1, the Tulane men's basketball team plays the last of five-straight games away from its home court and closes out the month of November with a quick trip across town to face the University of New Orleans on Tuesday, Nov. 29. Opening tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. at Lakefront Arena and the game will be broadcast on Cox Sports Television as well as ESPN3/WatchESPN.

Storylines:
• In search of road victory No. 1, Tulane plays the last of five-straight games away from its home court and closes out the month of November with a quick trip across town to face the University of New Orleans on Tuesday, Nov. 29.
• Entrances to Tulane's and UNO's campuses are just under 10 miles apart within the city limits.
• Redshirt junior Cameron Reynolds has reached double-figure scoring in each of the Green Wave's six games this season and is coming off his second 20-point performance of the year at Georgia Tech on Saturday night. He currently leads the team in scoring (18.0), is tied for second in rebounding (5.8), ranks third in assists per game (2.2) and has made 50 percent of his three-point shots (21-for-42) on the year.
• Tulane freshman forward Darian Jones and UNO junior forward Travin Thibodeaux both attended Brusly High School, but did not letter in the same seasons. Thibodeaux graduated in 2014, as Jones joined the varisty roster the following year.

The Opponent:
New Orleans snapped a three-game skid last Friday night with a 90-63 home win over Florida College. The Privateers are 2-0 when playing within their friendly confines this season. In Friday's win, junior forward Travin Thibodeaux posted a triple-double with season-high marks of 10 points and 10 rebounds to go with a career-best 11 assists. The triple-double was just the third in UNO history and seventh nationally this season. The Privateers are allowing opponents to score 84.2 points per game, while shooting .466 overall (146-of-313) and .360 from beyond the three-point arc (41-of-114).

The Series:
Tuesday's matchup marks the 49th all-time meeting between the programs with the Green Wave leading, 25-23, after a 64-62 home win last season. Malik Morgan led the olive and blue with a team-high 12 points. Tulane has won each of the last three games against the Privateers, including its last trip to Lakefront Arena, as the Wave escaped with a 57-53 triumph.
