Berry hurt in Tar Heels’ blowout

Sophomore Kenny Williams III had 14 of his career-high 19 points in the opening five minutes and No. 3 North Carolina routed Radford 95-50 on Sunday in Chapel Hill, N.C.

The Tar Heels (8-1) lost point guard Joel Berry II to a sprained left ankle early in the second half.

Berry, averaging 16 points per game, was injured with 17:36 left and didn’t return.

North Carolina was coming off a loss at No. 13 Indiana in the Big Ten-ACC Challenge.

Justin Cousin scored 14 to lead the Highlanders (3-5).

Gamecocks win without Thornwell:

Duane Notice scored 27 points and P.J. Dozier had 20 as No. 20 South Carolina beat Florida International 70-54 in Columbia, S.C..

The Gamecocks (8-0) were without leading scorer Sindarius Thornwell, who was suspended indefinitely before the game for violating an athletic department policy.

Thornwell led South Carolina with 18.7 points and 6.7 rebounds a game during its 7-0 start.

FIU, which also played without its leading scorer, Donte McGill, never led. Eric Nottage scored 20 points for the Panthers (3-6), while Michael Kessens had 12 and Anthony Bowell 10.

Hoosiers keep it up:

Robert Johnson had 17 points and seven rebounds and De’Ron Davis added 14 points to help No. 13 Indiana rout Southeast Missouri State 83-55 in Bloomington, Ind.

The Hoosiers (7-1) have won four straight, all in the last seven days.

Denzel Mahoney led Southeast Missouri State (4-4) with 16 points, and Antonius Cleveland had 13.

Indiana took advantage of Southeast Missouri State’s early shooting struggles to jump to a 17-2 lead. After the Redhawks closed to 26-21, Indiana finished the first half on a 13-5 run, then opened the second on an 11-4 spurt to make it 50-30 with 15:51 to play.

Indiana won despite committing 18 turnovers, going 7 of 20 on 3-pointers and playing without starting forward OG Anunoby (ankle) for the second straight game.
