Justin Jackson, from Humble, Tex., leads UNC to ACC title game
Posted Mar 14, 2015
It would be wrong to call Justin Jackson quiet. He’s certainly not the most vocal member of the UNC basketball team, but it’s hard to blame him when he lives with Joel Berry and part-time cheerleader Theo Pinson. But even after a team and career-high 22 points in UNC’s 71-67 upset of top-seeded Virginia in the semifinal of the ACC Tournament, there wasn’t a trace of gloating from the freshman.
