Jalen Washington helps UNC battle without Armando Bacot, but Tar Heels fall short at Virginia

Posted Jan 10, 2023
When Armando Bacot rolled his left ankle in the first 79 seconds of the game, that gave North Carolina freshman forward Jalen Washington a chance to step up. His versatile post skills were evident as he helped keep the Tar Heels in the game before No. 13 Virginia led by as many as 10 points in the second half, then held on for a 65-58 victory Tuesday.
