J.P. Tokoto more than just dunks

Posted Jan 21, 2015
In J.P. Tokoto's junior season, the 6-foot-5 wing has become more than just a highlight reel. He leads UNC is assists with 4.2 per game, is third on the team in rebounds with 5.0 per game, and, surprisingly, leads the Tar Heels in three-point shooting percentage at 39.1%. Tokoto is fourth on the team in scoring with 9.1 points in 27.1 minutes per game. Most important, though, has been his defense. (Carolina Blue)
