It’s safe to say that last night’s game against Iona didn’t start off the way that the Tar Heels wanted it to. Aside from the fact that the Gaels’ Ricky McGill couldn’t miss from deep, the Heels couldn’t get shots to fall from anywhere on the floor. Coby White was able to get some threes to go down in the early minutes to help his team keep up, but the other starters didn’t give him a great deal of support in helping prevent the biggest upset in the NCAA Tournament in Carolina history.
Thankfully, the Tar Heels had more than one freshman that entered the game ready to play, and this one was the most dominant player on the floor.
