BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Indiana sophomore forward OG Anunoby scored a team-high 16 points to lead the Hoosiers to a 76-67 win Wednesday against North Carolina in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge.

Anunoby (Jefferson City High School) shot 6-of-8 from the field and also had five rebounds, two assists and two blocked shots to help hand the Tar Heels their first loss this season.

Anunoby had two dunks in the game. The first was an alley oop from Josh Newkirk in the first half and the second dunk, a two-handed slam, extended Indiana's lead to 71-60 with 1:36 to play. He left the game after injuring his foot as he tried to land on the second dunk.

Indiana (5-1) will host SIU-Edwardsville on Friday.
