Malik Monk overshadowed amazing games by UNC's Justin Jackson, Joel Berry

Posted Dec 18, 2016
For the first time in history, North Carolina lost a game in regulation in which it scored at least 100 points. Kentucky's 103-100 victory against the Tar Heels on Saturday was the best and most riveting game we've seen so far this season. I feel like the game's flow, competitiveness and overall entertainment value won't be topped until the NCAA Tournament. (CBS Sports)
