J.P. Tokoto chooses pass over flash Friday

Posted Nov 10, 2014
As J.P. Tokoto approached the Belmont Abbey defender near the UNC basket — instead of preparing for liftoff — the Tar Heel high-riser dished the ball to freshman forward Justin Jackson at the last second for an effortless layup. Jackson’s layup gave him 16 points on the night, which led all scorers in UNC’s 112-34 trouncing of the Crusaders on Friday night. (Daily Tar Heel)
