N.C. State’s inexperience in big games was too much to overcome in loss to North Carolina

Posted Jan 9, 2019
N.C. State got what they wanted. There was a minute left against No. 12 North Carolina on Tuesday and the No. 15 Wolfpack were down 82-78. Markell Johnson found C.J. Bryce in the corner for a three that would have cut UNC’s lead to just one. Bryce airballs. Seven seconds later, Leaky Black gets behind N.C. State’s defense for an uncontested dunk. Game over.
