The Tar Heels finished with the best record in conference during the regular season, closed the season on a six-game win streak and defeated the Blue Devils at Cameron Indoor Stadium Saturday.

According to John Ewing of BetMGM, UNC has the most tickets (54.2%) and the most handle (57.5%) at the sportsbook, and they are the most-bet team to win a conference tournament at BetMGM. Duke finished second in the conference standings, but two of the Blue Devils' five losses in conference were against their rivals.

Wake Forest is a team in need of a win to keep its hopes of making the big dance alive and oddsmakers are giving them an outside chance to win the tournament at +1000. ESPN's Joe Lunardi has the Demon Deacons listed as one of the first four out. Wake Forest doesn't play until Wednesday, but seemingly needs a win against the winner of Notre Dame vs Georgia Tech. The last Carolina team and the biggest longshot among them is NC State, which finished under .500 in conference. The Wolfpack's only chance at a tournament bid is to win the conference tournament and they are +5000 entering Tuesday's games.

BetMGM also has a prop on the board that gives any team from the state of North Carolina -250 odds to win the ACC Tournament over the rest of the field at +250 odds.
