Leaky Black lives up to nickname in Tar Heels’ win vs Wake Forest

Posted Jan 5, 2023
For a three-minute stretch in UNC's 88-79 win against Wake Forest, Leaky Black lived up to his nickname. Black hears the moniker from teammates whenever he rips the net with a jumper, but he’s not particularly fond of it. "Every time I make a shot, they call me Steph’" Black said Wednesday, referring to Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry. (Fayetteville Observer)
