High stakes weekend for Triangle basketball teams

Posted Feb 22, 2020
Louisville leads the ACC in three point shooting, hitting more than 40% in conference games. UNC ranks 11th in 3-point defense, allowing opponents to shoot better than 33% from beyond the arc. Indeed, the Tar Heels have lost two straight games on three point shots at the buzzer. Lately though, the Cardinals have lost their touch, at least on the road. (WRAL Sports Fan)
