Entering this season, Danny Green had six double-figure scoring games in his last 50 games. Through nine contests this season, he has eight double-digit scoring games.

So far this season, opponents are shooting 32.4% from the three-point line. That would easily be the lowest mark in the Williams era.

Four players in Carolina history have shot at least 87 percent from the free throw line for a season. This year's Tar Heels currently have three players (Wayne Ellington, Danny Green, and Ty Lawson) at that mark or better.

The last three Tar Heel teams to make it to Christmas undefeated--1993, 1995, and 1998--all made it to the Final Four.

The Tar Heels are riding a 9-game winning streak, the third-longest winning streak in the Williams era. The 2005 team won 14 games in a row and last year's squad won 12 games in a row.
