Perimeter Help in Place

Posted Dec 27, 2013
In less than 10 days, Leslie McDonald has alleviated perimeter-scoring concerns for No. 19 North Carolina in a rather efficient manner. In Friday’s 75-60 win over Northern Kentucky, McDonald drilled his first three 3-pointers to give UNC a 22-8 lead with 11 minutes remaining in the first half. That type of rapid-fire outburst had been reserved solely for Paige through the first nine games of the season. (Inside Carolina)
