Bright lights. All-Americans. NBA royalty. A Hall of Fame coach. The 2011 edition of “Late Night with Roy,“ an event that signals the beginning of the college basketball season in Chapel Hill, had them all. Hosted again by ESPN anchor Stuart Scott, and fueled by a capacity crowd, Late Night started a journey the Tar Heels hope ends in New Orleans. During a 20-minute scrimmage, fans got their first glimpse at a team many believe to be the best in the country. (Inside Carolina)
