After scoring a game-high 25 points in UNC’s win over then-No. 4 Gonzaga this past Saturday, graduate transfer Cameron Johnson was named the ACC Men’s Basketball Player of the Week.

Johnson hit six of his eight three-point attempts in the game, which tied his career high for a single game.

The native of Moon Township, Pennsylvania leads the Tar Heels in scoring this season at 16.6 points per outing.
