Wayne Ellington's ability to run the floor pays dividends
Posted Mar 17, 2008
Wayne Ellington showed yesterday that he can get up and down the floor pretty well, and it was one of the key factors in the Tar Heels’ 86-81 victory against Clemson for the ACC championship. Ellington’s team-high 24 points included four fast-break baskets and two other jumpers that came in transition. And that got his confidence up to where he finished 10 of 13 from the field, with two 3-pointers.
