The NCAA announced on Wednesday that Raleigh’s Lenovo Center (formally PNC Arena) will be host to Sweet 16 and Elite 8 games during the 2028 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.

The Lenovo Center has already been on the docket for some time now, to host first and second round games in the 2025 NCAA Tournament.

The last time NC State hosted a regional was in 1982 and the last time the hosted the early round games was in 2016.

So if you’re wondering, “Does this mean NC State will be playing home games if they make a deep run in the NCAA Tournament in 2028?” The answer is, it’s wayyyy to early to know anything like that, but they’d have to be a highly ranked team nationally to get in a bracket that would have them playing home games that late in the tournament.
