After scoring 24 points in nine appearances before hitting Roy Williams Court to face the Explorers (6-5), Tyson was 9-for-14 shooting on Saturday, knocking down a season-high five 3-pointers in his best performance since scoring 25 points against Missouri State last season at Belmont.

Entering Saturday's 93-67 home victory over the La Salle Explorers (6-5, 0-0 Atlantic 10) in the Dean E. Smith Center, UNC basketball transfer addition Cade Tyson was on a four-game scoreless streak.

North Carolina welcomed La Salle to Chapel Hill for a 4 p.m. tip-off – and left its home court with a massive, 93-67 victory. Today looked much different than when the Tar Heels (6-4, 1-0 ACC) played Georgia Tech, a game in which they survived poor shooting to escape with a 3-point win.

Recently hired Tar Heels football coach Bill Belichick was recognized at halftime Saturday as UNC ran away from LaSalle in a nonconference victory at the Dan E. Smith Center in Chapel Hill.

The UNC basketball squad, including several other players who have fallen well short of exceeding expectations, hosts the unranked La Salle Explorers (6-4, 0-0 Atlantic 10) in the Dean E. Smith Center at 4 p.m. ET Saturday (The CW Network).

You never know what you'll get from the North Carolina Tar Heels in any given basketball game. One day, it'll be fastbreak opportunities leading UNC to victory. The next, it'll be Ven-Allen Lubin taking over the post.
