Five Storylines to Watch as North Carolina visits UNCW

Posted Nov 8, 2019
North Carolina held Notre Dame to 38 percent shooting, but it wasn’t a great defensive night for the Tar Heels as the Irish committed just six turnovers and guards Prentiss Hubb and T.J. Gibbs combined for 41 points. UNCW’s strength is at guard where Kai Toews will direct an offense led by Jaylen Sims (19 points in UNCW’s opener) and Jay Estime (13). (Heels Maven)
