The Tarheels knocked off Maryland in their opening game of the ACC Tournament 85-69 as they had their most balanced scoring attack since the beginning of the season. They placed 5 players in double figures and narrowly missed a 6th as PJ Hairston had 9 points off the bench. Kendall Marshall added 12 Assists.
John Henson went down early in the game on a hard foul and landed awkwardly on his wrist. It is being described as a sprained left wrist and although he tried returning, he was lost for the rest of the game and maybe for the tournament. That will be hard to overcome.
James Michael McAdoo replaced Henson and played with the most confidence that he has displayed all season long. He was strong on the boards and made his shots with a great deal of confidence. It was easily his best game of the season.
