Theo Pinson's accidental 3-pointer helps UNC men's basketball in ACC Tournament win over Miami

Posted Mar 10, 2017
Theo Pinson swears he didn’t mean to. His first try was too low, an errant alley-oop attempt that nearly sent forward Isaiah Hicks out of bounds to retrieve the loose ball. But the senior’s return volley was too high, forcing Pinson into the air and over a Miami defender. Twenty feet away, 6-foot-11 Tony Bradley stood under the basket, eyes locked on Pinson.
