UNC vs. Duke Basketball Playbook And Game Notes

Posted Mar 8, 2022
UNC outscored Duke 55-40 on 59.4% shooting in the second half in what was their best half of basketball all season. After hoisting a high volume of 3s in the first half, they shifted gears and ran a heavy ball screen offense, picking on Duke’s backline and attacking the rim. UNC only committed one turnover, too, and a season-low five on the game. (Patreon)
