Right before the opening tip, North Carolina’s starting five sat side by side on the bench as Duke introduced its lineup. No one said a word. No one expressed any emotion.

All five scored at least 12 points to lead No. 3 UNC to a 101-87 win at Duke, securing the school’s first four-game winning streak at Cameron Indoor Stadium since 1982-85. (Daily Tar Heel)
