Danny Green gets his game back on target in a hurry

Posted Mar 30, 2009
North Carolina was leading Oklahoma 25-16 when forward Danny Green's 3-pointer popped off the rim twice before finally rolling through. It was at that moment during the Tar Heels' 72-60 victory against Oklahoma in the South Region final that he knew it was going to be his day. “Things were just going right for me, and I'm glad it was today,” he said. “Because I've been struggling the last couple games."
