Harrison Barnes leads Tar Heels over Wolfpack
Posted Jan 30, 2011
Standing a few feet from UNC's bench, Harrison Barnes turned toward his cheering teammates and offered a beaming smile after swishing a 3-pointer. As a nod to Kobe Bryant, Barnes spread his arms wide while beginning his jaunt to the other end of the court. "The Black Falcon" soared to new heights Saturday, scoring a career-high 25 points as UNC rolled to an 84-64 home victory against N.C. State.
