No. 3 North Carolina visits the Miami Hurricanes after Armando Bacot scored 24 points in the Tar Heels' 80-76 loss to the Clemson Tigers

Another double-double Bacot posted 24 points (7-13 FG, 10-11 FT), 13 rebounds and one assist across 33 minutes during Tuesday's 80-76 loss to Clemson.

Impact Bacot recorded a second consecutive double-double, and the star big man has achieved that feat in 10 different games this season. Bacot ended January on a sour note with averages of 9.6 points and 7.2 rebounds per game over his last five outings in that month, but he seems to be turning things around with back-to-back outstanding performances to open February.
