The Tar Heels (33-7) won their first ACC regular-season title since 2012, their first ACC Tournament since 2008 and reached their first Final Four since 2009. Along the way, senior Brice Johnson became a first-team All-American. Their seven losses came by a combined 25 points, none by more than six. Now they're headed into an uncertain offseason.
