An 'old school' North Carolina win in more ways than one

Posted Feb 21, 2019
"We like to beat people up in the paint, get the layups and get them in foul trouble. It was a victory for the old-school teams," Roy Williams said. Cameron Johnson's game is old-school, too. He's not much of a dunker, although he can. He's known as a 3-point shooter. In this game? He hit a career-high 11 2-point shots, expertly driving and cutting his way to the basket.
