North Carolina forward Tyler Zeller was pleased that his team was so far ahead Tuesday night that coach Roy Williams pulled his starters with about eight minutes left.

Zeller’s 12 points in UNC’s win over Evansville leaves him at 999 for his career – one shy of becoming the 64th Tar Heels player to record quadruple digits. (ESPN.com)
