Five things we learned at the Nike Global Challenge
Posted Jul 22, 2013
3. Joel Berry's defense makes him a elite player: After Tyus Jones, Berry was clearly the next best point guard at the event. The Lake Highland Prep (Orlando) guard averaged two steals a game and the UNC commit always seems to elevate his play when the game is on the line. 4. Theo Pinson is a matchup nightmare: Pinson, another UNC commit, complemented his inside presence with an excellent outside shot. He'll be a great wing at the next level. He runs the floor exceptionally well for a 6-6 player, but he can also bang underneath.
