UNC Basketball: Points In The Open Court & What They Meant
Posted Jun 24, 2018

But this past year’s team wasn’t as dynamic getting up and down the floor, and it showed in the team’s stats, too. In 37 games, the Tar Heels outscored their opponents in fast-break points only 20 times, and just 11 times after conference play started.
