Cormac Ryan - Heating up for Tar Heels Ryan notched 18 points (6-12 FG, 6-11 3Pt), one rebound and one block over 33 minutes during Saturday's 54-44 win over Virginia. Impact There's no doubt Ryan is a secondary option to R.J. Davis in the UNC backcourt, but the senior guard has been turning it up of late. Over the last three games, Ryan is averaging 17.3 ppg and converting his outside shots at an impressive 51.9 percent. A lack of peripheral production may limit his fantasy ceiling, but UNC could work itself back in the conversation for a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament if Ryan's success from distance turns out to be sustainable.
