Player Review: Joel James

Posted Apr 29, 2015
Joel James proved to be a bit of a revelation this season. He wasn't necessarily a dominant big man and still struggled at times but there were plenty of instances where James validated his time on the court. James scored 11 points against UNCG then went for 8 points against Ohio State. In the game versus Duke in Durham, James played solid defense on Jahlil Okafor and also chipped in six points.
