Tar Heels in Summer League: Justin Jackson shows he belongs in NBA with big game

Posted Jul 13, 2022
It’s hard to understand why Justin Jackson wasn’t able to get more than a 10-day contract in the NBA last season. All Jackson can do to change that is take advantage of his opportunities, and he did that Tuesday. Jackson started and scored a team-high 24 points and five 3-pointers to help the Celtics’ Summer League defeat Golden State, 103–92. (Tar Heel Tribune)
