Theo Pinson scores first field goal in fantastic fashion as UNC men's basketball defeats Florida State

It took Theo Pinson more than two and a half games to record his first field goal of the 2016-17 season. But for the No. 11 North Carolina men's basketball team, it was well worth the wait.

After No. 9 Florida State cut Saturday's matchup between the two teams to 80-76 with less than six minutes left, the junior wing went to work. He brought in a rebound on a missed free throw, dribbled past half court, zoomed by Jonathan Isaac and toward the basket.

Two steps inside the 3-point line, he took flight.
