UNC junior varsity basketball overcomes slow start for 74-55 win over Guilford College

Posted Jan 24, 2017
Sophomore guard Caleb Ellis cut down the middle of the lane. Junior guard Kane Ma tossed up a soft lob, and Ellis threw it down with one hand. It was executed to perfection. It brought UNC’s bench and the small crowd in the Smith Center to their feet. Even star varsity point guard Joel Berry II — who had stopped by to watch the JV team — was impressed. (Daily Tar Heel)
