3-Pointers: Kendall Marshall must start for Tar Heels
Posted Jan 14, 2011
Roy Williams has his reasons. Not every reason is good, though. His continued insistence on starting junior point guard Larry Drew is baffling, given the evidence that UNC dramatically improves with freshman Kendall Marshall. In two ACC games, Drew is 1-for-8 from the field with five assists and four turnovers. Marshall is 5-for-9 with 11 assists and no turnovers.
