Leslie McDonald takes spunk from practice to game for Tar Heels

Posted Mar 2, 2010
North Carolina junior Will Graves wasn’t stunned at all to see freshman teammate Leslie McDonald register a breakout performance in Saturday’s 77-68 victory at Wake Forest. After all, Graves gets a face full of it in practice almost every day. McDonald scored a team-high 16 points, and registered four rebounds and an assist. More importantly, he provided some key late plays. (Burlington Times News)
