Sweet 16, Final Four, UCLA, Duke, it doesn’t matter. Caleb Love loves the second half.
Love played possum again in the 20 minutes of North Carolina’s Final Four matchup against Duke as he did just eight days ago against UCLA — two points against the Bruins, six against the Blue Devils. And while he didn’t put up 27 after the break, he left his mark all over this rivalry game.
It took just less than three minutes into the second half for Caleb Love to get in his bag of tricks. He opened the scoring for the Tar Heels with 3-pointer and another shortly after.
We knew what time it was after that.
(Caleb) LOVE is in the air
What a shot for #GoHeels

He’d erupt for 22 points in the second half, which included a dagger three to put the Heels up four with under 30 seconds remaining. It was all free throws from there to put the game on ice as North Carolina ended Coach K’s career with an 81-77 win to advance to the championship game.
A HISTORIC run for the Tar Heels… but they're not done yet!!! 🗣 #MFinalFour pic.twitter.com/OKwPKPWpTD
