Ellington makes it count vs. Miami
Posted Jan 18, 2009
It was preposterous how open Wayne Ellington was in the second half. UNC's junior guard was in the midst of the best 3-point shooting game by a Tar Heel guard since Rashad McCants made eight against Clemson in 2004 and still found himself with no Miami defender in a 10-foot radius. And it wasn't an isolated incident. "They kept leaving me open and I kept knocking them down," Ellington said after the Tar Heels' 82-65 victory over the Hurricanes.
