A Henri Veesaar dunk gave UNC the lead with four seconds left and Ohio State missed a potential game-winning three-pointer as the Tar Heels beat the Buckeyes 71-70 at the CBS Sports Classic in Atlanta Saturday.
Seth Trimble provided the assist to Veesaar in his first game back from injury, spinning into the lane and slipping before bouncing the ball to Veesaar. The dunk helped Veesaar end the game with 17 points and 10 rebounds for his sixth double-double of the season. Caleb Wilson, playing in his hometown, led all scorers with 20 points and grabbed a career-high 15 rebounds for his eight double-double. Trimble scored 17 points and tied a career high with three made three-pointers.
Saturday’s win improves UNC to 11-1 this season, which is the program’s best start through 12 games since the 2008-09 season. The Tar Heels will be back in action when they host East Carolina at the Smith Center Monday night at 8 p.m.
