Syracuse hosts Davis and North Carolina
North Carolina visits the Syracuse Orange after RJ Davis scored 26 points in the Tar Heels' 80-69 victory against the NC State Wolf PackJANUARY 24, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Armando Bacot - Breaks two program records Bacot registered 23 points (8-13 FG, 7-7 FT), 18 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 33 minutes during Saturday's 80-69 win over North Carolina State.
Impact Another game, another instance in which Bacot shows just how great he's been for UNC this season. He continues to leave his mark every time he steps on the court, and he left his name in the record books Saturday by becoming the all-time leader in rebounds in program history. He also became the Tar Heels' all-time leader in double-doubles, as this was the 61st double-double of his career at UNC. He broke the records from Tyler Hansbrough and Billy Cunningham, respectively.

NC State coach Kevin Keatts doesn't blame UNC's Leaky Black for Terquavion Smith injury NC State coach Kevin Keatts said Monday he does not blame UNC's Leaky Black for Terquavion Smith's scary injury over the weekend.
JANUARY 23, 2023 • FAYOBSERVER.COM
Leaky Black - "Glue guy" role continues Black racked up nine points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 26 minutes during Saturday's 80-69 win over North Carolina State.
Impact Black's stats rarely jump out of the box score, but his defensive capabilities and all-around contributions help hold everything together for the Tar Heels. He's now recorded at least one of the five major counting stats in back-to-back games. Perhaps more impressively, he's recorded two or more steals in seven consecutive games, averaging 2.9 spg over that span. On the season, Black has recorded 33 total steals across 20 games, which is good for fourth in the ACC entering Monday's slate of games.

Jalen Washington - Five minutes in return Washington posted one point (0-1 FG, 1-2 FT) and one assist across five minutes during Saturday's 80-69 victory over North Carolina State.
Impact Washington was back from a one-game absence forced by an ankle injury, and he ended up being quite limited in the matchup. This is typical on days when Armando Bacot is healthy and out of foul trouble -- a pattern that should continue for the remainder of the season.

Puff Johnson - Questionable at Syracuse Johnson could be available when the Tar Heels play at Syracuse on Tuesday, according to Rivals.com.
Impact Johnson suffered a knee injury before sitting out the Tar Heels' 80-69 win Saturday versus North Carolina State. Despite him not practicing on Sunday, they are optimistic in terms of his availability Tuesday at Syracuse.

RJ Davis - Logs 26 points during win Davis logged 26 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 14-14 FT) and four rebounds across 36 minutes during North Carolina's 80-69 win Saturday versus NC State.
Impact North Carolina played three games during mid-January. Though the Tar Heels used Armando Bacot (ankle) each matchup, his availability did not prevent Davis from being a valued scorer. He averaged 18.7 points across North Carolina's three games and undefeated mid-January.
