Lucas: A Better Bench

Posted Jan 16, 2019
Let's talk about the UNC bench player who won the game for the Tar Heels. So right away, you know this is going to be a long talk. Carolina beat Notre Dame on Tuesday, 75-69. Coby White was very good (17 points), Luke Maye had another double-double, Cameron Johnson hit the boards hard...but the Tar Heels absolutely, positively do not win this game without the bench.
