Roy Williams wants big men to be more assertive
Posted Feb 18, 2011
UNC will be looking to improve upon Tuesday’s 5-for-27 3-point performance when the No. 19 Tar Heels face Boston College on Saturday. But coach Roy Williams also wants big men Tyler Zeller and John Henson to be more aggressive. Williams said today the forwards weren’t assertive enough in demanding the ball – leaving the perimeter players to toss up too many outside shots.
