Hairston Powers Tar Heels Before Injury
Posted Mar 16, 2013
For nearly 36 minutes, it was the dream homecoming for Greensboro native P.J. Hairston. The North Carolina guard hit each of his first four 3-pointers in the first half, and his game-best 21 points gave the Tar Heels a 20-point lead in the waning minutes of the ACC quarterfinal against Florida State. Then, a freak accident left him keeled over in pain and blood dripping across the court.
