UNC's Final Four chances could come down to Lawson's health
Posted Mar 19, 2009
UNC's chances of winning the NCAA Tournament hinge on one right big toe. It belongs to point guard Ty Lawson. He sat out two ACC Tournament games last weekend because of pain and stiffness in the toe, and said yesterday that he's still fighting stiffness. Coach Roy Williams said that Lawson is not expected to play today. If Lawson can return, the Tar Heels could have a decent shot of making it back to the Final Four.
