Bench comes up big for UNC in win over NC State

Posted Jan 9, 2019
Cameron Johnson left the game at the 11:58 mark in the second half and would not return due to muscle cramps. From that point on, the Tar Heels non-starters contributed seven points, including a big bucket by freshman Leaky Black to stretch a four-point game to six with 41 seconds remaining. UNC would hold on 90-82 to hand the Wolfpack its second loss this season. (ABC 11)
