Dexter Strickland closes in to give Heels edge on offense
Posted Feb 27, 2011
In a win over N.C. State on Wednesday, the North Carolina Tar Heels rediscovered their shooting touch, and part of the reason for the increased offensive production was guard Dexter Strickland. No. 19 UNC will need Strickland, who is the starting shooting guard and backup point guard, to continue attacking the basket when Maryland visits the Smith Center today (7:45 p.m., Fox Sports)
