Hustle Plays in Crunch Time

Posted Feb 18, 2014
While North Carolina’s 67.9 percent shooting in the second half secured its 81-75 victory at Florida State on Monday, a handful of 50-50 plays kept possessions alive at critical junctures. Jackson Simmons entered the game with 2:03 to play before halftime, subbing in for Brice Johnson. Twenty-four seconds later, the junior forward was diving on the floor to save a loose ball.
