UNC Basketball: Orange vs. Tar Heels game preview
Freshman Spotlight
Syracuse: G Tyus Battle
Against Boston College, the 6 foot 6 point guard from Edison, NJ had a career-high 21 points. He also has two assists and a rebound in 33 minutes of play. The Tar Heels have had struggles against bigger guards this season. This could be another big game for Battle.
North Carolina: G Brandon Robinson
Against the Seminoles, Robinson only played four minutes. During that time he did absolutely nothing. Seriously, he had zero points, rebounds, assists, and free throws made. He did have a turnover when he caught a pass tossed to him by Berry before stepping over into back court, though it was attributed to Berry.
The only thing Robinson did do well, was being aggressive during his four minutes. He got his two foul shots driving to the basket on a fast break. He also had a lay-up blocked on a reverse after receiving a wide open pass down low. Since most of his season has been this game, any sign of life is a positive for Tar Heel nation.
