New names, new games in ACC basketball

Posted Oct 25, 2009
Ed Davis, North Carolina: His teammates call him "Easy Ed" because of his easygoing personality, but the 6-10 sophomore is anything but easy for opponents to handle. He came on strong offensively late in the season after averaging 5.6 rebounds in ACC play, leading to speculation that he might join Hansbrough, Lawson, Wayne Ellington and Danny Green in the NBA draft. Instead, he should start in one post position, and star. (Charlotte Observer)
