Frustration Evident as UNC Searches to Fix Recurring MistakesEven here in early January with 18 ACC games remaining on their schedule, the Tar Heels already are backing toward a must-win corner.
Chucky Hepburn - Sinks 16 free throws WednesdayHepburn logged 26 points (5-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 16-20 FT), two rebounds and seven assists over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 83-70 win over North Carolina.
ImpactHepburn scored more than half of his scoring output from the charity stripe, and the senior guard continues to have an impressive season as a key figure for the Cardinals. Hepburn is averaging 15.9 points, 5.4 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 2.6 steals per game this season.

RJ Davis - Struggles from field WednesdayDavis racked up 12 points (4-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 83-70 loss to Louisville.
ImpactDavis didn't have his best performance, and he faltered in a game where the Tar Heels needed him the most. This 12-point output was a season-low mark for the veteran, who's now failed to reach the 15-point plateau just four times this season. Davis will aim to bounce back when UNC takes on Notre Dame on Saturday.

Ian Jackson - Extends hot streakJackson closed with 23 points (7-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-11 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 83-70 loss to Louisville.
ImpactJackson racked up 26 points in a win over Campbell on Dec. 29, and he kept the hot hand alive with another impressive scoring display. Despite starting in just two of his 13 games, the freshman is averaging a solid 13.9 points per game while establishing himself as a reliable offensive option for the Tar Heels.
