Kendall Marshall plays bigger than his years

Posted Mar 6, 2011
Kendall Marshall ran the floor and ran the game. He spun around baffled defenders. He hesitated in the back beat of dribbles and whipped diagonal passes through the Duke defense. Marshall, 191/2 years old, did everything a veteran point guard should do, scoring 15 points and distributing 11 assists with only two turnovers. Most of all, he set the table for UNC's 81-67 victory over a rival ranked No. 1 much of the long winter. (Winston-Salem Journal)
