As usual, Carolina's trip to Las Vegas didn't turn out exactly the way the Tar Heels wanted. The Tar Heels' 92-89 loss to Texas means they've now dropped their last three games here (they also fell in 2016 to Kentucky and in 2011 to UNLV).
But it was still worth coming just to see the best show anywhere on the Strip—or off the Strip, in the case of Orleans Arena—in White's sensational 33-point performance.
