For this particular UNC team, an important victory against Arkansas. For Hubert Davis' program? It felt much bigger, if that makes sense. On a loud UNC locker room at halftime and why this was as much of a must-win as a November game can be: https://t.co/68L1j0YKUv
Friday was going to determine whether UNC's trip to The Bahamas was a positive experience or not and, at halftime, it was gut-check time. On RJ Davis, Seth Trimble and other takeaways from a strong response in an 87-72 victory against Arkansas: https://t.co/Fw6DzVnQy1
Quick UNC postgame nuggets. RJ Davis' 30 points ties his career high. Seth Trimble's 12 sets his. Tar Heels now 8-3 vs. Arkansas, all time. Have beaten the Razorbacks in Alaska (in 1980 Great Alaska Shootout) and now in The Bahamas. Did miss me some Kirsch nuggets.
Arkansas coach Eric Musselman told reporters that Tramon Mark suffered a back injury on the hard fall at the end of the game. It wasnβt his head or his neck.
Tough ending for Arkansas basketball. Hopefully the Tramon Mark injury isnβt as serious as it looked. Meanwhile, whole lot of black in the stands at DWRR Stadoum. About 30 minutes till kickoff. https://t.co/AHMvpgh23P

This is terrible. Such a scary situation down in the Bahamas with Arkansas Tramon Mark. Stretcher took him off the court after a hard fall. Just hoping he is OK. https://t.co/sdPc7evCcY
Been writing but scary moment here. Arkansas' Tramon Mark has been down for a while, after colliding with Bacot. Landed on his lower back. Had played brilliantly here today, with 34 points. Being placed on a stretcher. UNC leads 85-72 with 1:12 left.
