Posted Nov 12, 2014
With Kennedy Meeks slimming down, Brice Johnson beefing up, Justin Jackson stepping in as one of three McDonald's All-Americans and versatile J.P. Tokoto returning, the Tar Heels should have more balance this season. Marcus Paige has been named a preseason All-American and preseason ACC Player of the Year, but there's a good chance his scoring drops from the 17.5 average he had as a sophomore.
