Posted Dec 7, 2018
During exams, which begin Friday, the Tar Heels won't practice much before the Gonzaga game. But they hope to make those practices count. Nassir Little, who had 14 points Wednesday, was one of the many players not satisfied with how the team played. He said the Tar Heels need to compete harder. "I feel like we have a lot to focus in on in order to compete with Gonzaga." (NCAA.com)
