NBA Tar Heels: Week 20 Review / Week 21 Preview
Each Monday during the NBA regular season, All Tar Heels will review the prior week for each Tar Heel in the NBA and preview the week ahead. This week, we are looking back at games from February 28 - March 6 and looking ahead to games from March 7-13.
There are currently 12 Tar Heels on NBA rosters, 11 on full-time contracts and one (Theo Pinson) on a two-way contract.
The hands-down biggest news of the week was Cameron Johnson's game on Friday against the Knicks. The Suns won, but only because of a deep Johnson three as time expired. In addition to hitting the buzzer-beater, he scored a career high 38 points including 11-16 from the field, 9-12 from deep, and 7-8 from the free throw line.
That is a big time performance from Johnson and one we'll likely all remember for years to come (especially because it occurred the day before Cam's brother Puff helped the Tar Heels upset Duke).
Here’s a brief look at each Tar Heel in the NBA, what he did in the previous week of games, and a preview of the week ahead.
