Kendall Marshall, nearly recovered from broken wrist, also suffered elbow fracture
Former North Carolina point guard Kendall Marshall is training for the NBA draft at the IMG Basketball Academy in Florida, and he has some good news: He has nearly fully recovered from the broken wrist he suffered during the Tar Heels’ victory against Creighton in the NCAA tournament. In an interview posted on the academy’s website earlier today, Marshall said, “My wrist is almost 100 percent.”
And then came this revelation: “What people didn’t know is that I also fractured my elbow. That’s been the toughest thing for me to deal with, still not being able to go full contact. Hopefully, I’ll be ready to go by the [NBA scouting] combine.”

N.C. State-UNC basketball home-and-home lives another year
There will come a time in the not-too-distant future when the men’s basketball teams at North Carolina and N.C. State will not play one another twice per season. But that time has been delayed at least one more season.
The Tar Heels and Wolfpack will indeed play one another twice – once in Chapel Hill, once in Raleigh – next season.
