UNC Bright Spots

Joel Berry had a steady game with 17 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists.
Kenny Williams has been playing well on both ends of the floor with 12 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists.
Needs Work
The Tar Heels have to work on their killer instinct and put teams away. They were up by 29 points in the 2nd half.
Final Observations
Carolina needed this game to show that they are a pretty good team that is still developing. UNC has played good defense so far this season. They just need to continue to develop the freshman bigs.
