Dexter Strickland racking up assists

Posted Dec 19, 2012
North Carolina’s Dexter Strickland ranks fourth in the ACC in assists (5.0 per game). Who would have thunk it? Not even the senior guard himself. “Absolutely not,’’ he said Tuesday, laughing. “I always thought of myself as a just combo guard who could get to the basket, [play] defense. It’s a big accomplishment to be fourth. But I want to be one. And I want my team to be No. 1, also.” (ESPN.com)
