In need of a big win before going back on the road this week to take on another top-10-ranked team, North Carolina took the court at home against La Salle, an Atlantic 10 Conference team.
For just the second time this season, the Tar Heels looked fully in control and dominant of the entire game from start to finish.
They took a 17-point lead into the halftime break and won the second half by nine and putting a break on the jets.
Belmont transfer Cade Tyson finished with a season-high 23 points on five threes. RJ Davis had 13 points despite shooting 4-for-11 from the floor and 2-for-6 from deep. Seth Trimble and Ven Allen Lubin both finished with 10 points.
