Joel Berry in the NBA Draft, and the value of 'a winner'

Posted May 20, 2018
Joel Berry is a winner. He’s a winner in that the Tar Heels won, a lot, with him at the helm. North Carolina went 92-25 in Berry’s last three years in Chapel Hill, earning two No. 1 seeds, one No. 2 seed and making the title game twice. He’s a winner in that he makes “winning plays,” including a 22-point, 6-assist effort as North Carolina won the 2017 NCAA Championship. (Inside Carolina)
