Christian Keeling’s streak of nine straight games of scoring nine-plus points ended tonight as the grad transfer was only able to connect on one of his six shot attempts. The Tar Heels will need his inside scoring presence tonight against a very deep and athletic Seminoles team. The loss was especially agonizing for Carolina given the tough stretch upcoming. — Bryan Ives (@awaytoworthy) March 8, 2020. Carolina won the overall battle 38-37, but exactly half of their rebounds were offensive. Brooks averages 15.2 points per game, 8.5 rebounds and is shooting 53.2 percent, all top 10 in the ACC. At 3:50, Leaky Black picked up his second foul so he and Bacot (who already had two fouls) checked out. We are to that strange part of every season where the next game could be the last. Twitter: isaacschade Justin Pierce drew another offensive foul tonight. They’ll have to play two of the top three teams in the conference this week, starting with Florida State tonight and then Duke on Saturday. We now turn our attention to do-or-die time in the ACC Tournament. At 2:26, Brooks picked up his second foul and headed to the bench. With apologies to Garrison Brooks, can we just pause and appreciate what a rough season Brandon Robinson’s body has endured? Carolina fought valiantly to maintain proximity to Duke tonight, but it was not meant to be. However, it took Anthony some time to get reacquainted and the rest of the team lacked the aggression we witnessed against NC State and Miami. The final 3:50 of the first half was an exercise in “don’t-let-Duke-build-too-much-of-a-lead-with-all-five-starters-on-the-bench”. As a team, Carolina only achieved seven assists, the second lowest total this season. The junior big man shot under 40% from the field for the first time since November 15th versus Gardner-Webb (where he was 1-3). Such has been the case for many freshmen in their first game at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Conversely, Duke’s hot shooting from deep (10-for-21) provided a big advantage for the home team. You might argue that his return disrupted the team’s rhythm a bit, which may be true, but Anthony finished the game +11 while no other player was better than +5. Tonight was just the second game all season in which Cole Anthony didn’t achieve double-digits in the scoring column. And yet he came back into the game early in the second half and wound up playing 13:51 and connecting on two three-pointers.

Jonathan Alexande r of News and Observer dropped the scoop tonight that Garrison Brooks will be returning his senior year. However, it appeared he was forcing his game a bit at times and he also simply made some poor decisions. Garrison Brooks is having one of the more impressive offensive stretches in recent memory.

It’s fine to show things like this, but don’t move away from game action for this. Through all of the bad, though, he did still manage to record his tenth double-double of the season. Carolina has the 14 seed and will play Virginia Tech on Tuesday, March 10. He has suffered countless ankle injuries and re-aggravations, a car accident, and tonight a head injury. Those types of hustle plays have been his biggest contribution to the 2019-20 Tar Heels. As you would imagine, the offensive glass kept Carolina close for much of the game. Saturday’s game, at least to start, marked the first time this season that every scholarship player that hasn’t already been ruled out for the year was available to play. By no means should Anthony get all the blame. People are tuned in to see the game, not hear a recap of a filler segment. So with four starters on the bench with two fouls and the fifth in the locker room injured, the lineup of Jeremiah Francis, Christian Keeling, Andrew Platek, Justin Pierce, and Walker Miller finished the first half. Ultimately, I expect Brooks to watch the tape, learn from his mistakes, and then burn that performance from the memory bank. There was question whether Armando Bacot would be able to play tonight. Tip is at 7:00pm ET on ACC Network. Garrison Brooks participated in 20-25 percent of practice today. On Duke’s first possession, Cole Anthony fouled Tre Jones just 16 seconds into the game. Andrew Platek and Armando Bacot each admitted that they were guilty of standing around at times and just watching Cole go to work. Again the Heels clawed back to within one point twice in the second half, but couldn’t make the plays to get over the hump and the lead ballooned to the final margin of 13 points. CHAPEL HILL — North Carolina junior forward Garrison Brooks’ status for tonight’s game against N.C. State is unclear, UNC coach Roy Williams said Monday morning. This occurred from 11:59-11:18 of game action plus two Bacot free throws at the end of that time. That had not been done by a North Carolina player since Tyler Hansbrough in his senior year of 2008-09. Garrison Brooks had been playing like an All-ACC first-teamer, other guys were finally starting to gain some confidence, and the Heels were coming off their two best shooting performances of the season. On Carolina’s first possession, Anthony turned the ball over after driving too far into traffic. Twitter: tarheelhoopblog Bacot’s double-double gives him 10 this season, the second most ever by a Carolina freshman (Antawn Jamison had 13). Tonight’s 26 points give him six straight games of scoring 20-plus points and four straight games of scoring 25-plus points. Given the low severity of B-Rob’s injury, this team could be (knock on wood) as healthy as they’ve ever been during this final and most grueling stretch of the season. Throw in the return of a projected lottery pick in Anthony and a raucous Smith Center crowd, and this felt like one the Heels could run away with. It’s hard to pinpoint the blame on any particular player or area. Brooks' junior season was the expectation of Coach Williams. The Tar Heels look to rebound from a deflating loss. After shooting over 40 percent from three each of the past two games, the Heels cooled off to just 33.3 percent (4-for-12) tonight.
