Costly Turnovers Doom No. 9 UNC in Loss to No. 19 Kentucky

Posted Dec 22, 2018
Coming off a signature victory last weekend against Gonzaga, the No. 9 UNC men’s basketball team had a chance for another on Saturday in Chicago—but too many turnovers cost the Tar Heels in an 80-72 loss to No. 19 Kentucky. While UNC was able to overcome 23 turnovers against Gonzaga thanks to some hot shooting, the game against Kentucky was a different story. (Chapelboro.com)
