Brandon Robinson’s defense earned him big late minutes in UNC’s win at N.C. State

Posted Jan 11, 2019
Brandon Robinson played 5:14 of the last 6:18 against North Carolina State while Nassir Little was on the bench that entire time. Fans can debate the merits of the decision, but the reason Robinson was on the court that much in the final minutes was obvious. When he guarded Markell Johnson and C.J. Bryce during that key stretch late in the second half, neither scored. (Triangle Sports Network)
