BERKELEY -- After tying the program-record home win streak with a 25-point rout of UC Davis, California men's basketball continues December play with a chance to set the new record against Cal Poly. The 2016-17 Golden Bears have the chance to become the first team in Cal history to win 27 consecutive home games when they take on the Mustangs at 5 p.m. on Saturday in Haas Pavilion.

Cal is 26-0 at home since March 1, 2015 and a 27th consecutive home win would best the current record of 26 shared by the teams who played in Harmon Gym in the Dec. 27, 1958 to Dec. 16, 1960 streak. Cal is 23-2 in non-conference home games under head coach Cuonzo Martin and 64-5 on Pete Newell Court vs. non-Pac-12 opponents since the start of the 2009-10 campaign.

The Bears are coming off a season-high 86 points in their 86-61 win over UC Davis, a contest which saw three players score in double figures. Charlie Moore led with 22 points in his eighth double-digit effort of the season, while Grant Mullins added 17 points and Cole Welle scored a career-best 10 points.
