Lack of size challenges North Carolina's frontcourt ahead of Duke game

Posted Jan 31, 2025
North Carolina's lack of size in the post this season has caused ripple effects on the Tar Heels' style of play. Long gone are the days of the post feed to Armando Bacot for a layup or an open kick-out 3-pointer. This team rarely even looks for post-ups this season, looking to their guards instead. Rebounding woes have slowed down the Tar Heels as well. (Daily Tar Heel)
