Crothers: Kendall Marshall the driving force for Tar Heels
Posted Mar 4, 2012
Kendall Marshall finished with a game-high 20 points and 10 assists, but he was more proud that all five Tar Heel starters scored in double-figures. While Butter was spreading it around to his teammates, too often Duke’s go-to play on the offensive end was Austin Rivers creating for himself. It became clear that what Duke lacked most in defeat was not a Tyler Zeller or a Harrison Barnes, but a Marshall.
