"It’s been tough," said Dontrez Styles, who entered Saturday's game averaging 4.4 minutes in 16 games. "Every athlete wants to play, but I just trust (UNC) Coach (Hubert) Davis, try to better myself mentally, being prepared working hard every day, coming to practice and just doing what he wants me to do. And now it’s finally showing. I’m thankful." (Tar Heel Illustrated)
