Cameron Johnson Plays More Than Expected In UNC Debut

Posted Dec 21, 2017
Roy Williams didn't want to play Cameron Johnson as much as he did on Wednesday. Instead of the eight to 10 minutes that Williams intended to give the 6-8 graduate transfer in his first regular season game as a Tar Heel, Johnson played 17 minutes. He scored 10 points on 1-for-5 shooting (7-for-8 from the free throw line) and added three rebounds, one assist, and one steal. (Inside Carolina)
