So when one sibling is playing for the Tar Heels and another decides to play for the Blue Devils, there's going to be a lot of talk. This weekend, Sickles All-American junior Amber Henson committed to Duke, prompting immediate message board chatter among fans from both schools, especially when the 6-foot-4 Henson said she'd still be wearing light blue to her brother John's men's games at UNC.
