Roy Williams supports Ty Lawson

Posted Apr 4, 2009

Roy Williams said Friday he has "zero" problems with point guard Ty Lawson and reserve Marc Campbell shooting craps before the Final Four. The players are of age, he said, they were chaperoned by the team's video coordinator -- and Williams has already rolled the dice himself. "When my team came here to play Michigan State [in December], I went down and shot craps and lost -- and we won the game," Williams said. (Raleigh News & Observer)
