Q&A: James Worthy talks '82 NCAA title game and March Madness
Posted Apr 2, 2012
The 30th anniversary of one of college basketball's landmark games has arrived. Three years after Magic Johnson beat Larry Bird, and a year before N.C. State shocked Houston, UNC in 1982 edged Georgetown, 63-62, in a riveting championship game. It was Michael Jordan's first of many clutch performances, Coach Dean Smith's first title. And James Worthy capped a most-outstanding-player tournament by scoring 28 points.
