Garrison Brooks

The junior forward finished with 14 points and six rebounds, shooting 6-for-12 from the field as well as 2-for-5 from the free throw line. Half of his boards were on the offensive end. Brooks also handed out three assists and had two steals.


Cole Anthony

The freshman point guard scored just nine points on 4-for-14 shooting from the field (0-for-5 from 3-point range), but he grabbed 10 rebounds and had eight dishes on the night against four turnovers. He also registered a blocked shot. Anthony was intent on managing the game and as a result, the Tar Heels took a step forward in that respect.
