Justin Jackson has gone from starter to sitting out entire games and has even been assigned to the Reno Bighorns of the G League. Jackson, the 15th pick in last year’s NBA draft, was back in the starting lineup for Friday’s loss at Memphis and back on campus Saturday to see his No. 44 jersey honored and put in the rafters along with 51 other former Tar Heels.
