Kerwin Walton Hasn't Found the Freshman Wall Yet

Posted Feb 24, 2021
If there is a freshman wall, Kerwin Walton hasn’t found it yet. The rookie sharpshooter is fifth in the ACC in three pointers and second in percentage, hitting at a .467 clip. Far from hitting the wall, Walton has been improving as his freshman year goes on. Over the last five games, he’s hit 17-of-30 from three, including 5-of-7 in the blowout of Louisville.
