Early-entry ex-UNC star McAdoo in NBA playoffs

Posted Apr 17, 2015
Even after being undrafted and spending most of his rookie year in the NBA D-League, former Tar Heel James Michael McAdoo said recently he was happy with his decision to go pro. Of course, it helps that he was speaking from the locker room at Golden State, the No. 1 seed in the West, which enters the playoffs at home today (3:30 p.m.) against the No. 8 seed New Orleans Pelicans.
