Walker Kessler's Statement Game

Posted Feb 28, 2021
Walker Kessler scored off entry passes and putbacks, and even took his defender off the dribble from the top of the key for a layup. The Seminoles’ athleticism had little counter for the Tar Heel freshman’s length and motor in the post. Kessler had season and game highs in points (20), rebounds (8), blocks (4) and field goals (9) in UNC’s 78-70 victory Saturday. (Inside Carolina)
