UNC needs Brice Johnson to play, not sit

Posted Dec 6, 2014
Brice Johnson didn’t play much against Iowa, just 12 minutes. Foul trouble kept him on the bench, where he rooted for the Tar Heels during an eventual 60-55 loss to the Hawkeyes. “I’ve just got to stay out of foul trouble. Gotta keep my hands out of there,” Johnson said. “I don’t want to be sitting on the bench and just cheering them on. I want to help them on the court.” (Durham Herald-Sun)
