John Henson finished with 14 points, 13 rebounds and five blocked shots, leading a dominating effort inside as No. 19 North Carolina cruised past Wake Forest, 78-64, on Tuesday night in Chapel Hill, N.C.

The Tar Heels (19-6, 9-2 ACC) didn't shoot particularly well, hitting just 5-of-27 3-point shots, but they made up for that by committing just eight turnovers and dominating on the glass, finishing with 21 offensive rebounds.

North Carolina jumped out to an early 23-10 lead and cruised from there. Wake Forest rallied midway through the second half but never got closer than eight points.

Tyler Zeller had 18 points and nine rebounds for North Carolina, while Harrison Barnes added 17 points.

J.T. Terrell led the Demon Deacons (8-18, 1-10) with 18 points.
