Hubert Davis’ on UNC basketball’s win over St. Bonaventure

CHAPEL HILL, NC — In an electrifying show of resilience, the UNC Tar Heels stormed back from a sloppy first half to crush St. Bonaventure 85-70, and coach Hubert Davis is pumping fists. After trailing early and fumbling through 11 turnovers (oops, not their night… yet!), the Heels switched gears in the second half, unleashing a DOMINANT 36-point paint assault, thunderous dunks, and an error-free finish (only 2 turnovers!). “We weren’t evading… we were matching it,” Davis growled, embracing the physical battle. The Dean Smith Center erupted as the defense clamped down, forcing 14 Bona turnovers and holding them to 38% shooting post-half.

The Silent Assassin: Freshman Derek Dixon! Off the bench, he dropped 7 points in 9 minutes—including a CLUTCH 3 to ice the game when Kyan Evans fouled out. Dixon’s energy sparked a 13-0 run, and Davis beamed: “Best minutes he’s played all year. The kid’s _got fire_!”

The Stars Shone Bright:

– Henri Veesaar: 24 points, 13 rebounds. Highlight reel, no padding—this giant dominated the glass, scoring 16 in the second half. Unstoppable.

– Kyan Evans: Set the frenetic pace, buried big 3s, drew fouls… until foul trouble hit. 14 points, 4 assists. Respect!

– yShot Game = Swish Mode: 50.9% FG, 21/27 FTs. Less hype, more swish. The offense finally found flow.

– Turnovers? Gone. Post-20 scoreless Bona streak? Broken. 

What Changed? “We talked about toughness,” Davis said. “No evasion—we went toe-to-toe.” Pressed to contain St. Bona’s shooters? Held them to 6/20 from 3 after halftime.

The Chase Continues: #11 MICHIGAN STATE (Nov 29, 7 PM ET). UNC’s 6-0, momentum blazing! Can they keep unleashing the beast vs. the Spartans? Tickets flying. Fans, gear up!
