Brice Johnson becoming more consistent under Roy Williams' steady motivation

Posted Jan 8, 2016
The battle between Brice Johnson and Roy Williams is as entertaining as whatever game UNC is playing in at times. Williams is consistently tough on his big man as he tries to get Johnson’s play to be consistent. “He does every little thing he can,” Johnson said. “He’s said some very motivating things that hurt my heart a little and got to me to force me to play better.” (WRAL Sports Fan)
