Marcus Ginyard On The Power of Pinson

Posted Jan 31, 2017
If you’ve watched the Tar Heels, and of course if you’re a fan, you can’t help but root for Theo Pinson. He makes it easy to love him. He makes plays and he leaves his heart on the court. He’s been dubbed the “Energy Guy,” “Lightning Rod” and “Stat Stuffer,” among other things. Whatever we call him, he’s got “it.” That something that takes this Carolina squad to elite status.
