National championship: North Carolina's Isaiah Hicks, Joel Berry resilient, clutch for Tar Heels

It was a fitting way for the Tar Heels, who completed their redemption tour in a 71-65 nail-biter over Gonzaga, to claim their sixth national championship. UNC has had more talented teams during Roy Williams’ tenure. But the 2017 version is the most mentally tough. (NCAA.com)
