UNC’s Justin Jackson makes late push for ACC Player of the Year

Posted Feb 26, 2017
Here we are with Justin Jackson, who’s coming off three consecutive 20-point outings. The 6-8 forward isn’t interested in talking about possibly being voted the best player in the ACC, but he isn’t shying away from making statements with his play. Saturday was no exception: Jackson was the most dominant player on the court in UNC’s 85-67 thumping of Pitt. (FanRag Sports)
