The Dadgum Dispatch: Analyzing UNC Basketball's Early-Season Stats & Trends

Posted Dec 15, 2019
North Carolina has scored just 5 points off of 12 steals over the last two games. The Tar Heels have had more turnovers (118) than assists (117) through nine games. UNC's 16.1 average possession length on offense is its slowest over the last 10 seasons. However, there is some reason to believe that this team will be better in late February and March.
