UNC Seeks to Balance Three-Point Dependence

Posted Oct 31, 2018

Plainly stated, UNC shot a lot of threes and made a lot of them. At ACC Media Day last week, Cameron Johnson said that UNC's reliance on the three-point shot last season was a big reason for its early exit from the NCAA Tournament. (Inside Carolina)
