Lucas: Rapid Reactions - Maui Invitational Bracket

Posted Jul 19, 2016
The Maui Invitational is Roy Williams' favorite of the marquee preseason tournaments. But UNC's last visit wasn't as pleasant as past trips, as the 2012 Tar Heels lost to Butler on the way to a 2-1 mark after titles in 2004 and 2008. "It's a long trip and we have to remain focused," Williams said Tuesday. "You need experienced players...It's a wonderful tournament." (GoHeels.com)
