North Carolina leading scorer and rebounder Armando Bacot left Tuesday night's 65-58 loss at No. 13 Virginia just over a minute into the game after injuring his left ankle.
Bacot rolled his ankle 1:18 into the game and did not return. He was replaced by Jalen Washington, a freshman, who played 27 minutes in Bacot's absence and matched his season total for field goals with five, as North Carolina went on a 21-5 run in the first half and led by seven points early in the second. Armaan Franklin started Virginia's rally with a putback dunk, and Vander Plas also had a putback dunk and a pair of 3s, putting Virginia (12-3, 4-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) ahead 52-42 with nine minutes left.
