Deja Kelly Scores 21 Heroic Points As UNC Women's Basketball Surges Past Oklahoma

Posted Dec 20, 2023
The game started late, and UNC found the offensive rhythm late. Despite being sick for three days (including during time outs), Deja Kelly fixed that, and the Tar Heels pulled away in the second half for a 61-52 victory Tuesday at the Jumpman Invitational in Charlotte. Kelly scored 16 of her 21 points in the first half, eclipsing 1,500 points for her career. (Tar Heel Tribune)
