Sterling Manley Gets His Home Game

Posted Mar 22, 2019

North Carolina has a tradition in which the Tar Heels usually play homes games near where each player is from at least once during their careers. It was a tradition started by Dean Smith and often upheld by Roy Williams, though it's becoming more difficult to keep the practice alive. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
