Against Syracuse and their 2-3 zone on Tuesday night, Garrison Brooks erupted for 14 first-half points en route to 16 points and 10 rebounds in the 81-75 win for UNC. "I had to bring it tonight because I knew I had to play better," Brooks said. "I drew a line and said, 'I’m gonna play better and help my team.'" And that's exactly what the veteran did.
