Danny Green has a tattoo of a globe on his chest. "Green makes the world go round" is inscribed around the picture. The phrase suits the North Carolina reserve's vital contributions for the second-ranked Tar Heels. In North Carolina's 86-77 victory Saturday against Kentucky, Green led the Tar Heels with a career-high 20 points in only 24 minutes off the bench, the sixth time in seven games he's been in double figures.
