It was quite a different experience Saturday night for number 24 to be on the court hearing "Jump Around" as opposed to being on the bench showcasing his dance moves for the Smith Center crowd. Sophomore guard learned of his start only a couple of hours before game time at the pregame meal when head coach wrote Watts' name on the white board as one of the starting five. (Tar Heel Blue)
