Tudor's take: Lawson at top of his game

Posted Feb 13, 2009
Ty Lawson, after that performance Wednesday night at Duke, probably played his way into the lead for the ACC basketball player of the year award. The junior playmaker has struggled at times on defense, but his offensive intensity has been at a lights-out level through most of the schedule. There's Boston College’s Tyrese Rice and Wake Forest's Jeff Teague, but neither has consistently outplayed Lawson. (Raleigh News & Observer)
