Each Monday during the NBA season, All Tar Heels will review the prior week for each Tar Heel in the NBA and preview the week ahead. This week, we are looking at games from March 1-7 and looking ahead to games from March 8-14.

This past week was truncated due to the All Star Break. No games were played after Thursday. As for the actual All Star Game itself, Team LeBron and Team Durant squared off Sunday night in Atlanta, with the fighting Bron Brons coming out on top 170-150. Giannis Antetokounmpo led all scorers with 35.

Regular season action will pick back up on Wednesday night with two games (Washington at Memphis, San Antonio at Dallas) before a slate of 11 games on Thursday.

At the break, the 76ers (Danny Green and Tony Bradley) maintain their lead in the Easatern Conference, although by only half a game.

In the other conference, Cameron Johnson and the Suns have jumped up all the way to second place in the West, 2.5 games back of the Jazz.

Also at the break, Harrison Barnes has the highest points per game average of all the NBA Tar Heels at 16.7 (48th place).

There are currently 12 Tar Heels on NBA rosters, either full time or on a two-way contract.

Here’s a brief look at each Tar Heel in the NBA, what he did in the previous week of games, and a preview of the week ahead.

I grew up in Atlanta knowing that I was going to be the next Maddux or Glavine or Chipper. Unfortunately, I never grew six feet tall, ran 4.4 in the 40-yard dash, threw 90 m.p.h. on the radar gun, or hit 50 home runs. So I had to find a different way to dive head first into sports - writing about it. My favorite all-time sports moment? 1992. NLCS. Game 7. Sid Bream. Look it up. Worst sports moment ever? Two words: Kris. Jenkins. I live in the bustling metropolis of Webb City, MO, where ministry is my full-time job. I spend my free time with my wife, Maggie, and my two children, Pax & Poppy.
