Bruce Pearl: Auburn can't let UNC's big guards change how Tigers play

Posted Mar 28, 2019

The Tigers have players to guard the likes of a 6-foot-8 Luke Maye. The issue is at the guard spots, where the shortest player stands 6-foot-5 and Auburn’s Jared Harper and Bryce Brown stand 5-foot-11 and 6-3, respectively. (247 Sports)
