• Leaky Black made two three-pointers for the first time this season and scored 10 points, at the time a season high.

• Manek is averaging 2.23 threes per game this season, the second-most by a Tar Heel who measured 6-9 or taller behind only Cameron Johnson, who averaged 2.67 threes in earning first-team All-ACC honors in 2018-19.
• Johnson and Reggie Bullock are the only Tar Heels to play significant time at power forward (the 4) and average more threes per game than Manek, who plays almost exclusively at the 4. Bullock averaged 2.34 threes in 2012-13, when UNC played four perimeter players around James Michael McAdoo at the 5. Johnson also split time at the 3 and 4 in 2018-19.
• Manek is one of three Tar Heels 6-9 or taller to make 50 threes in a season. Cameron Johnson made 96 in 36 games in 2018-19, Ademola Okulaja made 59 in 34 games in 1998-99 and Manek has made 57 in 26 games.

• Love had made four threes in five previous games – at Duke last season and four times this season.
• The St. Louis native is fourth in the ACC in three-point percentage in league games (.424) and all games (.413). By comparison, he shot 26.6% from three a year ago.

• Garcia said in a statement: "I cannot thank everyone enough for the unbelievable support that has automatically been given to me while I flew home to support my family. Not everyone will understand, but those who know our family are very aware of the circumstances and challenges we are facing. As much as I love this University and basketball, being in the middle of a health crisis is where our family is right now and it's where I need to be. After the loss of several very special family members this past year, I came close to losing my dad in December and my grandma is currently in the ICU. With my dad recovering and my grandma fighting for her life, it's not even a question to me where I need to be right now.
My family is my world and I will always be there for them. The past few months have quickly changed my perspective on life and I have put this into God's hands and trust His guidance.Times like this bring out the beauty in God's people and I thank all of Tar Heel Nation, my coaches and my teammates for all the love and support. I thank you for lifting us up with your powerful prayers. The University, this team and fans are special. Go Tar Heels."
