Berry’s Late Floater Helps No. 13 UNC Escape Wake Forest’s Upset Bid in ACC Opener

Posted Dec 30, 2017
A contested floater from Joel Berry with 10 seconds remaining helped the 13th-ranked Tar Heels escape a serious upset bid Saturday, as UNC defeated Wake Forest 73-69. Having watched a nine-point lead transform into a four-point deficit with time running out, the Tar Heels were on the verge of their second straight home loss until Roy Williams made a slight lineup change.
