One fateful decision summed up North Carolina's Sweet 16 demise
Posted Mar 30, 2024
With UNC leading by one and just over a minute to play, forward Jae’Lyn Withers set a top-of-the-key ball screen to try to get R.J. Davis a favorable matchup. Both Alabama defenders trapped Davis. When Davis whipped the ball back to Withers spotted up just to the left of the top of the key, the 6-foot-9 senior didn’t have a defender anywhere near him.
