It was the Nassir Little show for UNC against Florida State.

The former five-star recruit finished with 18 points, 8 rebounds and a handful of monster dunks over hapless FSU defenders. It was perhaps the first time this season that Little has taken over a game for Carolina in the way many expected him to.

During his performance, social media blew up with reactions and awe over the performance from Little.

With the win over Florida State, the Tar Heels move to 22-5 overall and 12-2 in ACC play. That conference mark brings UNC to a tie with Virginia and Duke with a handful of games remaining.

Up next for UNC is a home matchup against Syracuse, who kept it close with Duke over the weekend but eventually lost in the Blue Devils’ first game this season without star freshman Zion Williamson.

Tip-off is set for 9:00 p.m. from the Dean Smith Center in Chapel Hill. Tune in for pregame coverage beginning at 7:30 p.m. with Countdown to Tip-Off with Aaron Keck.
