Quick Hitters – UNC vs. NC State

Posted Jan 27, 2018
The Tar Heels allowed the Wolfpack to shoot 15-for-30 on three-pointers. Meanwhile, the Heels shot just 4-for-19. NC State nearly shot a better percentage from deep than UNC did from the free throw line (55 percent). In his post-game press conference, Roy Williams said, “If I had to pick one thing, I’d say we’ve got to do a lot better job defending the three-point shot.” (Armchair All-Americans)
