The Postgame: Not Pretty, But Shooting Emerges

North Carolina’s 80-62 win on Saturday over USC Upstate was not pretty. But several positives came from the messy outing, including improved three-point shooting (10-23 overall) and Jonathan Powell’s performance eased some questions about bench play as Hubert Davis’ team heads deeper into December. Greg Barnes and Tommy Ashley team up on the Inside Carolina Postgame to discuss the game and key takeaways from UNC’s ninth win on the season.
