WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) — Michael Devoe scored 20 points, Moses Wright had 17, and Georgia Tech beat Wake Forest 75-63 on Friday night in a regular season finale.
The Yellow Jackets (15-8, 11-6 Atlantic Coast Conference ) extended their winning streak to six games. Wake Forest (6-15, 3-15) has lost seven straight.
Jordan Usher added 14 points and Jose Alvarado had 11 for Georgia Tech, which shot 29 of 52 (56%) from the floor. Alvarado also had five assists and four steals. The Yellow Jackets are 11-1 and 9-0 in ACC games when Alvarado and Devoe score in double figures.

The Yellow Jackets have won 11 of 14 in the series including the last five.

The conference tournament is March 9-13 in Greensboro, North Carolina.
