Toe jam: Should Lawson miss the ACC Tourney?

Posted Mar 12, 2009
The Tar Heels are dealing with an injury, and it's a big one. The right big toe of point guard Ty Lawson is jammed and swollen, and the recently crowned ACC Player of the Year says it's an old, undetected break that really smarts. UNC opens ACC Tournament play Friday at noon, and the prudent move would be to sit Lawson, wish reserve guards Bobby Frasor and Larry Drew II the best of luck and take your chances.
