Justin Jackson, forward, North Carolina
At 6-foot-8, 210 pounds, Justin Jackson is a mismatch for Roy Williams and the Tar Heels. He’s averaging a team-leading 18. 5 points per game this season for UNC, and that includes scoring totals of 34 against then-No.6 Kentucky, 28 against Monmouth and 26 against Virginia Tech.
Jackson is a very versatile scorer, which makes him tough to guard for defenders. He’s big enough to get the ball on the wing, turn his back and back down into the paint for a smooth hook shot, but he can also curl off picks and nail fadeaway three-pointers or make acrobatic plays at the rim in transition.
You never know what you’re going to get out of Jackson, and that makes him extremely dangerous in March Madness.
