Joel James ‘all business’ during return trip with Tar Heels

Posted Feb 8, 2013
Only in his fourth year of competitive basketball, Joel James is part of the Tar Heels’ 10-man rotation, and his UNC team faces a critical test Saturday at eighth-ranked Miami. With UNC carrying a middling NCAA Tournament résumé, the Miami game gives the Tar Heels a shot at a much-needed marquee win. The game is so important to UNC’s March hopes, James barely acknowledges the return to South Florida. (Palm Beach Post)
