Nassir Little lifts Heels with late heroics

Posted Jan 16, 2019
On a night when many shots failed to fall, the Tar Heels got a much-needed boost from Nassir Little. Entering the game at around the 12-minute mark of the second half, with his team trailing Notre Dame, 52-51, Little threw down a pair of dunks to put UNC back on top. Moments later Little capped a Tar Heel flurry on the offensive glass with a critical putback. (WRAL Sports Fan)
