Following a thrilling win over rival Duke on Saturday, UNC returns home to face off against Miami.

The Tar Heels (12-6, 7-4 ACC) seem to be hitting their stride and are 7-2 since the beginning of January. Meanwhile, Miami (7-11, 3-10 ACC) has seen its share of struggles so far this season and is 1-5 in its last six games.

Freshman Caleb Love was the spark plug for Carolina on Saturday, scoring a career-high 25 points. Roy Williams praised Love after the game, but said his ceiling has still not been reached.

“I don’t think Caleb played the best game he can play, by any means,” Williams said. “He’s played the best game that he’s played since he got to North Carolina. But I think he can be a great player. And I think he was big for us tonight. You cannot have those kinds of mistakes, though, guys.”
