Kendall Marshall's fractured wrist could spell the end of UNC's title hopes

Posted Mar 19, 2012
In 1969, 1977, 1984 and 1994 otherwise excellent UNC teams have seen their seasons derailed by late-season injuries to their starting point guards. Roy Williams has experienced it too; his 1997 Kansas team carried a 34-1 record into the Sweet 16 but lost to Arizona, in part, due to a broken wrist suffered by starting shooting guard Jerod Haase, now a UNC assistant.
