Carolina fans, particularly those of the Roy Williams era, are not used to seeing a Tar Heel team excel at shooting free throws. But this season, UNC as a team is shooting 76.5% from the charity stripe, good enough for 25th best in the NCAA, and 1st in the ACC! Duke is not far behind percentage-wise at 74.2% this season.
But the Blue Devils have been absolutely zen from the line during the NCAA Tournament. In their four games so far, Duke is shooting 86.2% (56 for 65) including a perfect 9 for 9 in their opening round win over Cal State Fullerton.
