Posted Dec 6, 2019
North Carolina coach Roy Williams says Armando Bacot is likely out for the Tar Heels' game at Virginia on Sunday. Bacot sprained his left ankle in a home loss to No. 6 Ohio State on Wednesday. Williams said Friday that the 6-foot-10 Bacot is walking without crutches, but he has experienced swelling and doesn't see “any way in the world that he can play.” (Associated Press)
