P.J. Hairston, left hand bandaged and all, picked up where he left off in the ACC tournament, torching Villanova to the tune of 23 points (7-of-11 shooting, 5-of-7 from 3-point range) while making big plays down the stretch. He also led the team with five rebounds and three steals. The sophomore from Greensboro, N.C., has scored at least 20 points in four of his last six games. (Fox Sports Carolinas)
