Tar Heels miss 10 shots in a row; Henson blocked at the end

In the second half, North Carolina disappeared offensively for five and a half minutes, missing 10 shots in a row. That proved too much to overcome I suppose as Kentucky beat the Tar Heels 73-72 in Lexington.

While Tyler Zeller hit six of six free throws and finished with 14 points, he also is still having trouble with fumbling the ball down low. Kentucky obviously watched game film as they collapsed on him with double teams to fluster him. At the end of the game, Marshall got the ball to Zeller midway down the paint in good position for a basket or a foul. But, as he has done too much this season, he fumbled with it and popped it up in the air. Henson got the rebound and had a short jumper for the victory, only to have his shot blocked.
