Quick Hitters – North Carolina vs. UNCW

Posted Dec 6, 2018
The big concern of late has been the Tar Heels’ poor defense. North Carolina held UNCW to 36 percent shooting, forced 25 turnovers, and scored 34 points off those turnovers. It remains to be seen whether the defense was legitimately better, or just a product of playing a less talented team. We’ll get answers in the next two games against Gonzaga and Kentucky.
