I fully expect UNC hoops twitter to not overreact and remain level-headed after this result coming out of Gainbridge Field House this evening…
A lot of things to clean up after half #1 in Indianapolis, where UNC trails Indiana 41-29. Offense is creating good looks, we just need to finish at the rim and cut down on the bad turnovers. Keita looks much improved since the USC tilt.
*Deep breaths—it’s only a scrimmage*
Leave it to @BigTenPlus to put a pay wall on a preseason scrimmage and then no one can even watch it.
Round of applause for all involved 👏🏼

Beyond impressed with how connected North Carolina looked tonight under Michael Malone.
Tar Heels over USC by 18 and two starters --- Matt Able and Terrence Brown --- combined for just five points.
25 and 10 for Jarin Stevenson.
15, 9, and 5 assists for Neo Avdalas.
