Play in the paint makes difference again for UNC in win, NC State in loss

Posted Feb 11, 2018
"Anytime you play a team twice, it's a different game," NC State coach Kevin Keatts said. "It wasn't. It was a great offensive game for both teams the second time around. "The plays we made at the end of the game at UNC, they made today." Luke Maye set a career high with 33 points and finished with 17 rebounds to lead UNC, which scored 60 points in the paint.
