Chapel Hill - Freshman Austin Rivers buried a 3-pointer at the horn to give No. 10 Duke an 85-84 win over No. 5 North Carolina on Wednesday night.
Rivers scored a season-high 29 points and hit six 3's, none bigger than the game-winner at the buzzer. With the Blue Devils trailing by two, final seconds, Rivers launched a 3 from the right wing that swished through the net, sending Rivers running down the court in celebration while the rest of his teammates gave chase before mobbing him in front of a stunned UNC crowd.
It was a stunning loss for the Tar Heels, who led by 10 with about two-and-a-half minutes left.
Harrison Barnes scored 25 points to lead Carolina, while Zeller finished with 23 points and 11 rebounds.
