The No. 5 UNC Tar Heels defeated the Texas Longhorns 82-63 Wednesday night in Chapel Hill, N.C. The Heels played a very solid game with Harrison Barnes leading the way with 26 points and 10 rebounds. Contributions came elsewhere with double digit efforts coming from John Henson and Reggie Bullock. Kendall Marshall continued to play at a high rate, dishing out nine assists, and Tyler Zeller grabbed 11 boards. The game was just a solid showing by the Heels offensively, shooting 44.4% from the field and 42.9% from deep, and defensively, holding the Longhorns to just 34.8% from the field and 36% from deep. More good news for the Heels was their free throw shooting. They have been plagued by poor shooting in recent games, but they focused this game to hit 74.2% of their free throw attempts.
So the game aside, there were two amazing posterizations from the first half. The first is courtesy of Dexter Strickland, and the second is courtesy of PJ Hairston. Enjoy.
