North Carolina continued their west coast stint in the PK80 Tournament against Arkansas on Friday. It wasn’t a great start for the Tar Heels, but once they got rolling, the outcome was never really in doubt. In the end, North Carolina got the 87-68 win and will play in the Championship game of the Victory Bracket on Sunday.
It wasn’t the hottest start by any means. No one could find the basket for the Tar Heels, even the vaunted junior from Hough High School. In the first eight minutes of the game, Luke Maye had two points (on free throws), but was 0-1 from the field and had two turnovers.
