Dascenzo: Ty Lawson a steal for the Heels

Posted Feb 2, 2007

The fact the Heels are 20-2, 6-2 ACC is no surprise. They were picked to be the monster in the ACC in 2007, a deep team with speed, shooters, defenders and when somebody might not be necessarily hot, Williams can find somebody who is -- and in a hurry. But look no further than Ty Lawson's amazing maturity as a rookie guard as to one of the main reasons UNC will be a tough out in the NCAA Tournament. (Durham Herald-Sun)
