I really wonder about Bacot’s ankle. That looked pretty nasty. I’m sure he’ll play, but how will he feel? Is he 90%? 80%? Just like we need to play well, UNC will need to play well too. Any injury really hurts them. Like Nova, they have no bench.
Wilson vs Manek will be a good matchup to watch. Manek got bullied by Banchero several times. Obviously, Wilson isn’t that guy but should be able to drive on him effectively.
Kenpom says we’ve played the best defenses of anyone. If our shots are falling, we should be able to put up 80. Will be interesting to see if our defense frustrates UNC.

Bacot tweaks something every other play it looks like. This team overachieved tremendously this year. If it wasn't for Love and Smith they wouldn't have made it past the first round. Unfortunately I don't see how Kansas doesn't run away with this
