PHILADELPHIA—As Roy Williams addressed his team after Carolina’s 101-86 win over Indiana, he had plenty of history to mention.
The head coach looked through the stat sheet. He told his team about Brice Johnson’s 20-point, 10-rebound performance. That means Johnson now has 22 double-doubles during his senior season, which ties Billy Cunningham for the most in a single season in Carolina history. Think of all the Tar Heels who have come along since 1964, and not a single one of them has been able to tie Cunningham. Brice Johnson did.
The Tar Heels responded with a nice cheer for Johnson’s 20/10.
