TarHeelsWire How to Watch
The North Carolina Tar Heels are back in the win column, thanks to a 79-65 win Saturday they led throughout against the last-place Pitt Panthers.
UNC (20-5, 8-4 ACC) faced an uphill climb moments before tip-off, learning it would be without Henri Veesaar . With no Veesaar or Caleb Wilson, North Carolina received massive contributions from Zayden High (15 points, seven rebounds) and Jarin Stevenson (team-high 19 points).

The Tar Heels take a short trip east down I-40 for their next game, facing in-state rival NC State for a 7 p.m. tip-off on Tuesday night.
Expect the Wolfpack to play angry, particularly coming off Saturday's 77-76 loss against Miami (FL). State (18-8, 9-4 ACC) led by seven with 1:07 remaining in regulation, then suffered a scoring drought, committed a stupid foul and left the Lenovo Center upset.
UNC searches for its third-straight win against State. North Carolina won 63-61 in Raleigh last season, then via a 97-73 blowout in Chapel Hill. The Tar Heels hope to get Veesaar back, as he missed Saturday's victory with an illness and lower-body injury.
Tuesday night's rivalry clash will be more than just another game in the series. Both UNC and State will battle for positioning in the ACC standings, with whoever wins taking sole possession of fifth place.

North Carolina will be shorthanded, while State should be fully healthy. The Lenovo Center will be rocking – and the Wolfpack need another signature win to boost their NCAA Tournament resume.
If Veesaar is back, UNC wins by a few points. If Veesaar remains out, State will be extremely aggressive.
