James Michael McAdoo playing with confidence
Posted Feb 4, 2012
North Carolina senior forward Tyler Zeller isn't sure what changed within James Michael McAdoo, the Tar Heels freshman who arrived surrounded by considerable expectations. What Zeller knows, though, is that one day about two weeks ago, McAdoo showed up in practice a different man. "He just kind of showed up one day in practice and started playing really well."
