UNC's Christian Keeling and Justin Pierce have admitted they haven’t been at their best throughout the season. But against N.C. State, the North Carolina basketball team’s graduate transfers made a small, but crucial run in the Tar Heels' 75-65 win. “Coach just said ‘Be aggressive, if you’re gonna shoot the shot, then have the (guts) to make it,’” Keeling said.
