Pinson, Manley go 'attack mode' to lift Tar Heels past Yellow Jackets

Posted Jan 20, 2018
Theo Pinson's 11 points and 10 rebounds plus Sterling Manley's nine points and three rebounds were above-par play for the pair and the difference that lifted the Tar Heels past Georgia Tech 80-66. Pinson says the difference in his play is "just being in attack mode." "I tell myself before every game since the two-game losing streak: 'Attack mode, attack mode.'" (WRAL Sports Fan)
