North Carolina's Justin Jackson out to throw down a soft reputation
Posted Nov 20, 2016
North Carolina assistant coach Steve Robinson approached head coach Roy Williams with a sheepish grin. During the Tar Heels’ one-on-one drills, Robinson told Williams he saw Justin Jackson do something he has never done since arriving in Chapel Hill. Jackson dunked on a teammate. Freshman Shea Rush, a 6-foot-6 preferred walk-on, was the victim.
