NBA Tar Heels: Week 4 Review / Week 5 Preview
Each Monday during the NBA season, AllTarHeels will review the prior week for the Tar Heels in the NBA and preview the week ahead. This week, we are looking at games from January 11-17 and looking ahead to games from January 18-24.
Of the 46 potential NBA games Tar Heels could have played in over the course of the previous week, 10 were postponed (21.7 percent).
Harrison Barnes (30), Danny Green (29) and Coby White (22) had the three highest single game scoring outputs of the week.
Barnes was the game's high scorer last Monday in a 127-122 win over the Pacers. Green's performance happened in a 137-134 overtime victory over the Heat in which he connected on nine three-pointers. White's 22 points also happened in an overtime game, however he and the Bulls lost 127-125 to the Thunder.
On to the player-by-player review of last week and preview of the week ahead:
There are currently 12 Tar Heels on NBA rosters, either full-time or on a two-way contract.
