Pick and roll key for Tar Heels vs. NC State

Posted Jan 8, 2019
NC State's Markell Johnson gave North Carolina fits as the ball handler on pick-and-roll action last season in Chapel Hill, and you can be sure both coaching staffs have emphasized that aspect in preparation for this game. UNC’s front line will have to do a better job hedging against the screen and getting back into position against the roll than they have much of this season. (Wilson Times)
