Ty Lawson easing back into the Heels' rotation

Posted Mar 6, 2008

It’s taking time for North Carolina point guard Ty Lawson to get back up to speed. Lawson played in his second game since returning from an ankle sprain, logging 20 minutes during Tuesday night’s victory against Florida State. “When I tried to run full speed and stop, I couldn’t do it,” Lawson said. “I feel like I’m a step slow sometimes. I’m not doing as much and that’s a little frustrating now.” (Gaston Gazette)
