UNC-Miami Observations

Posted Feb 16, 2009
UNC shooting guard Wayne Ellington recorded his first career double-double (15 points, 10 rebounds) despite wearing a sleeve on his injured right arm. "I sprained some ligaments against Duke; I got tangled up with Lance Thomas for a rebound,'' Ellington said. "He got the ball, and my arm was kind of stuck in there ... so I bent my arm a little too far. It's getting better." (Raleigh News & Observer)
