Deon Thompson wants NYC redemption

Posted Mar 29, 2010
Deon Thompson has played more games in a Carolina uniform than any player in the history of the program. He’s hit the floor 150 times in his career. He remembers game No. 4, a 82-74 loss to Gonzaga in Madison Square Garden. He remembers game No. 120. That was this season’s 87-71 beating at the hands of Syracuse, also at Madison Square Garden. Those two losses don’t sit well with Thompson. (Daily Tar Heel)
