Leslie McDonald emerging as critical scorer

Posted Jan 7, 2011
UNC's Leslie McDonald admits there were times last season when he didn't have any trust in his shot. Fortunately for the Tar Heels, however, the 6-4 guard seems to have rediscovered his confidence in his sophomore season. McDonald has emerged as a critical spark off the bench for the Tar Heels the past five games, as he is 15 of 26 from 3-point range. (Durham Herald-Sun)
