Derek Dixon flips script as UNC rides Henri Veesaar, Caleb Wilson double-doubles to win

Posted Nov 26, 2025
Derek Dixon’s night was an example of how North Carolina's bench can tilt games. Dixon was -10 during an extended first-half stretch when St. Bonaventure erased an 11-point deficit and went ahead by three points. But UNC increased its lead during a 7 1/2-minute second-half stretch with Dixon at point guard after Kyan Evans picked up his fourth foul. (Tar Heel Tribune)
