Justin Jackson Named Sporting News 2017 First Team All-American

Posted Mar 6, 2017
Justin Jackson - First Team: To become a truly great team, North Carolina needed Jackson to emerge as a reliable first option. That happened not long after the Tar Heels lost at Indiana, and he became comfortable taking a high volume of shots and proved himself a challenge to defend because of his ability to hit from long range, from mid-range and at the rim.
