UNC Basketball Pounding the Post
Posted Jan 22, 2017
In Chestnut Hill on Saturday, UNC got back to its preferred strategy of force-feeding the low post. The Tar Heels threw 30 post entries in the 90-82 win, higher than their season average of 24. While all four primary posts (Kennedy Meeks, Isaiah Hicks, Tony Bradley, and Luke Maye) received at least a handful of entries, it was Meeks who did the heaviest lifting.
