Tar Heels ramp up ahead of first Duke meeting

Posted Feb 19, 2019
The key for UNC will be keeping Duke’s athletic lineup from getting easy penetration, as this group of Blue Devils scores more around the rim. As for UNC’s plan to defend Zion Williamson? “It’s easy to guard somebody when they don’t have the ball,” Garrison Brooks said Monday. “So that would be best.” When crunch time hits, expect to see Nassir Little on the court.
