How SMU Limited North Carolina's Frontcourt Duo: Physicality & Double Teams

On North Carolina's first extended possession Saturday, star freshman Caleb Wilson took one post-up dribble to back down SMU forward Corey Washington, turned to his right and tried to make a scoring move as he was enveloped by a double team that came from 7-foot-2, 272-pound Samet Yigitoglu.
