Sports Illustrated: North Carolina freshman Marvin Williams made 3-pointers, drove to the basket and did everything in between. He punctuated his coming-out party with a spectacular dunk, where he posed in the air with his left hand behind his head. And it all came after he spent a good portion of the day in bed recovering from the flu.
"He's a freak," teammate Rashad McCants said. Williams had a season-high 20 points, McCants scored 18 and Sean May had another double-double, helping the second-ranked Tar Heels beat North Carolina State 95-71 on Thursday night.

Later, with walk-ons and other little-used players finishing out the blowout, several teammates were mimicking Williams' move on the bench.
"He is awesome," [NCSU coach Herb] Sendek said. "I don't think there is anything he can't do."
TrackBackPLEASE Marvin, don't go to the NBA. Just think of how much better you'll play with another year of Roy under your belt...
This is the chant I say at night in a circle of burning candles. While my husband, the Duke Fan, sings a song about Luol Dang.
