Justin Jackson shooting from deep(er)

Posted May 28, 2013
In one fell swoop, Justin Jackson catches the pass and launches the three a foot behind the college line. Swish. "It's a small adjustment having the college line," said Jackson, a junior who is committed to North Carolina. "But EYBL uses college rules and that includes the three-point line. I've been used to the high school line for so long that I think it may hurt me if I keep shooting from there. So I definitely step back further during regular games. I think it will help me prepare for college." (USA Today)
