Versatile Justin Watts comes up big in UNC win

Posted Mar 10, 2012
Many will credit UNC’s 13th straight victory over NC State to Kendall Marshall’s 8-foot bank shot with 10.2 seconds left -- a controversial play that had Wolfpack fans screaming “charge!” after the sophomore put a shoulder into State’s Alex Johnson on his drive toward the hoop. But even Marshall gave the kudos to Justin Watts, who played four different positions because forward John Henson was sidelined and so many others were in foul trouble. (ESPN.com)
