The loss was the Hurricanes’ second in a row and their fifth straight defeat against the Tar Heels. UNC quarterback Drake Maye finished the game with 17 completions on 33 passes for 273 yards.

Wembanyama the story in Spurs home debut, but Cain has moments for Heat in preseason loss

The crowd at Friday night’s exhibition at Frost Bank Center deemed attendance worthy because of the home debut of San Antonio Spurs No. 1 draft pick Victor Wembanyama.
