Playing without both Caleb Wilson and Henri Veesaar for the second consecutive game, UNC’s offense struggled all night as the Tar Heels fell 82-58 at NC State Tuesday.
UNC shot an abysmal 8-32 (25 percent) in the first half and just 1-16 (9.3 percent) on three-point attempts, falling behind 42-26 by halftime. NC State, which came into the night as the top three-point shooting team in the ACC, shot 5-9 (55.6 percent) from downtown and 17-32 (53.1 percent) overall in the half. Wolfpack guard Quadir Copeland had his way all night long, efficiently managing the NC State offense to the tune of 20 points, six rebounds and seven assists.
For UNC, Zayden High once again started in place of Wilson and Stevenson replaced Veesaar. The two were the lone offensive bright spots for Carolina: High logged his first career double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds, while Stevenson added 13 points and nine rebounds. No other Tar Heel reached double figures.
Tuesday’s loss drops UNC to 20-6 overall and 8-5 in ACC play. The Tar Heels will be back in action when they visit Syracuse Saturday at 1 p.m.
