ACC Freshman Watch, Jan. 5

Posted Jan 5, 2012
P.J. Hairston, UNC (8.3 ppg, 2.3 rpg, 37.5% FG/3pt): Hairston’s averaging 8.3 points, 2.3 rebounds and fewer than one assist per game. But Hairston is only playing about 13 minutes a game. Early in the season, Hairston shot 3-pointers almost exclusively – 64 of his 88 field goal attempts are from long range – but that doesn’t mean he can’t get to the rim and throw down.
