NBA Tar Heels: Week 7 Review / Week 8 Preview

Each Monday during the NBA 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 at games from February 1-7 and looking ahead to games from February 8-14.

Nassir Little posted a career high 30 points earlier in the week for the Trail Blazers, algeit in a losing effort to the Bucks. 

Despite a low offensive output to finish off the week on Sunday, Harrison Barnes had a stellar scoring week, dropping in 24, 24, and 28 in the first three games of the week. Barnes has now scored over 20 for the Kings in six of the past eight games. 

Cole Anthony has now scored in double-digits in four straight games. 

After playing only sporadically so far this season, Justin Jackson is finally receiving more consistent playing time; having played at least 10 minutes in each. Jackson scored a season high 10 points against Houston Monday. 

There are currently 12 Tar Heels on NBA rosters, either full time or on a two-way contract.

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.

I grew up in Atlanta knowing that I was going to be the next Maddux or Glavine or Chipper. Unfortunately, I never grew six feet tall, ran 4.4 in the 40-yard dash, threw 90 m.p.h. on the radar gun, or hit 50 home runs. So I had to find a different way to dive head first into sports - writing about it. My favorite all-time sports moment? 1992. NLCS. Game 7. Sid Bream. Look it up. Worst sports moment ever? Two words: Kris. Jenkins. I live in the bustling metropolis of Webb City, MO, where ministry is my full-time job. I spend my free time with my wife, Maggie, and my two children, Pax & Poppy.
