Posted Nov 12, 2009
Marcus Ginyard went from being the do-everything leader on a Final Four team at UNC to sitting out with an injury the following season while his teammates won a national championship without him. He's off to a fast start in proving he's all the way back. The fifth-year senior matched his career high with 17 points to help the sixth-ranked Tar Heels beat North Carolina Central 89-42 on Wednesday night in the 2K Sports Classic. (Tar Heel Blue)
