Harrison Barnes lifts UNC to 74-71 win over Miami
Posted Jan 26, 2011
North Carolina freshman Harrison Barnes might be struggling with his shooting this season, but he’s proving that he can hit the big ones when his team needs them the most. The starting wing – who buried three big shots down the stretch earlier this month to help top Virginia Tech -- scored five points in the final 64 seconds Wednesday to push the Tar Heels to a 74-71 victory at Miami.
