Final Four notes: Lawson's gambling questioned
Posted Apr 4, 2009
Ty Lawson wasn't the only UNC guy to try his hand at craps this week. Roy Williams went, too. Which basically answered the question of whether the Tar Heels coach was upset that his point guard walked down the street to shoot dice at the casino Wednesday night. "If we don't want those kids doing it, don't put the Final Four in a city where the casino is 500 yards from our front door," Williams said Friday. "And they've got a great buffet in there. I mean, come on."
