Tar Heels fans who remember UNC's run to the 2009 national title know Wayne Ellington seemingly can’t miss when he gets on a run. He’s enjoying another one of those now for the Detroit Pistons. Ellington was 4 of 6 from 3-point range in Detroit’s 114-110 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. He set a Pistons record with 21 3-pointers in a four-game stretch. (Tar Heel Tribune)
