Rivals' College Basketball Team of the Week: North Carolina

Posted Feb 8, 2019
UNC is riding a six-game win streak heading into a matchup with Miami, so it’s likely the Tar Heels will be riding a seven-game win streak into Monday’s showdown with No. 3 Virginia. In a win over NC State on Tuesday, the Tar Heels didn’t just win big – they scored 113 points. The most encouraging sign for the Tar Heels is the recent play of freshman Nassir Little. (Rivals.com)
