Justin Jackson, Kennedy Meeks to represent UNC at Operation Basketball event
Posted Oct 21, 2015
The ACC announced the players that will represent their respective teams at the upcoming Operation Basketball media event in Charlotte on Tuesday. Surprisingly, UNC’s senior leader Marcus Paige — last season’s preseason ACC Player of the Year — isn’t among them. This year’s Tar Heel representatives will be junior center Kennedy Meeks and sophomore forward Justin Jackson.
