Sakima Walker scored 17 points and had 10 rebounds as Cal dominated the middle quarters, shooting 56% and outrebounding Wake 41-28, securing a 23-point ACC Tournament win.
- Earlier this year, the California senior center led the Golden Bears to a 75-52 first-round ACC Tournament win with 17 points and 10 rebounds at Gas South Arena.
- Following five early lead swaps, Cal used a 10-0 run to take a 25-17 lead, then scored nine in the second quarter to lead 32-21 at halftime.
- With a dominant middle stretch, Cal outscored Wake Forest 29-12 in the third quarter and shot 55.9 in the second and third quarters, outrebounding Wake 41-28.
- The Cal team, with a 19-13 record, advances to face Syracuse on Thursday after defeating Wake Forest, which finishes 14-17, in the first round.
