Posted Dec 19, 2012
Dexter Strickland never played point guard in high school and has started once at that position during his four years at North Carolina. Yet the UNC senior is fourth in the ACC in assists at 5.0 per game entering today’s game at Texas. Strickland has 26 assists and nine turnovers in the past three contests, including a career-best 10 assists in the Tar Heels’ game Saturday against East Carolina. (Durham Herald-Sun)
