UNC’s perimeter-oriented starting lineup is about to face its toughest challenge defensively when N.C. State visits the Smith Center Saturday(4 p.m., ESPN). Roy Williams said he would stick with the smaller lineup against the Wolfpack, with forward James Michael McAdoo (6-9, 230) guarding the bulkier Richard Howell (6-8, 257) and wing player P.J. Hairston (6-5½, 220) covering the taller C.J. Leslie (6-9, 200). (Durham Herald-Sun)
