ATL WE ARE HERE ‼️ @danielhwei got shy there at the end. What he was about to say, though, is that he’s watching the backcourt matchup given Kentucky’s slew of speedy, athletic guards. I’ll be keeping an eye on how UNC’s experience plays out against a young Wildcat squad.

Great UNC bench reaction to DJ Burns Jr.'s triple. Rough transcription below: Cadeau: "I think that was the first three of his career." High: "Really?" Cadeau: "And it was butter." High: "Get the f*ck out of my face with that sh*t."
