Roy Williams talks NBA Draft, Will Graves, and 2010

Posted Jun 24, 2009
Speculation arose in spring about Marcus Ginyard still working to get back to full health, and Williams answered an inquiry about his rising fifth-year senior with a broad brush stroke. “Marcus is doing well,” Williams said. “He’s playing better [and] he’s feeling better.” The seventh-year UNC head coach compared the situations surrounding Ginyard’s role with the ’09-’10 team and David Noel’s role with the ’05-’06 squad as “very similar.” (WRAL Sports Fan)
