The North Carolina Tar Heels began their highly-anticipated season on Monday night, hosting the Elon. They were able to pick up a win, though maybe not as easy as they had anticipated.
The reigning ACC Player of the Year, RJ Davis saved the Tar Heels after they found themselves down with under eight minutes remaining. He came off the bench and sparked a 16-2 run, ending with a team-high 24 points.
The game will now not just step up a level; they head on the road to take on the No. 1 ranked team in the nation, Kansas, at Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence, Kansas. Enemy territory, college’s best team, UNC basketball — ingredients for an upset.
There is no doubt that Elliot Cadeau will need to shoot as well as he did against Elon, RJ Davis will need to take over like he always does, and one of the frontcourt trees is going to have to stick to Hunter Dickinson.
Can UNC pull off the first week upset over the top-ranked team?
Here’s how to tune into UNC’s matchup with top-ranked Kansas.
