Posted Jan 15, 2026
Led by freshman guard Ebuka Okorie's 36 points, Stanford fired in 16 3-pointers in a 95-90 victory Wednesday over the Tar Heels, prompting a court-storming at Maples Pavilion. UNC coach Hubert Davis listed plenty of reasons why Stanford became the latest team to bury his team from 3-point range, but didn’t seem to have the answers on how to stop them. (Tar Heel Tribune)
