UNC's Small Ball Winning on the Boards

Posted Feb 20, 2018
Roy Williams is starting a small lineup for just the second time in his tenure at UNC, and the Tar Heels are dominating the glass with a stretch-four playing the five and a collection of wings and guards manning the other positions. The small lineup is now 9-3 and has sparked a five-game win streak. In those 12 games, UNC has outrebounded its opponent 10 times. (Inside Carolina)
