Lucas: Miami Rapid Reactions

By Adam Lucas

1. It's nice to have seniors who can play through struggles. After a rough evening in Coral Gables, Garrison Brooks came back and made two big plays down the stretch to help Carolina to an ACC win at Miami. And then Andrew Platek finished it off with the game-winning basket.

2. Sitting on a 1-for-7 night and having been visibly frustrated minutes earlier, Brooks stepped to the line and hit two free throws to give Carolina the lead with under a minute to play, then contested Miami in the backcourt to force a turnover.
