Mid-season breakout continues Jackson ended Wednesday's 79-53 victory over California with 20 points (8-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal in 33 minutes.
Impact Jackson has been a major catalyst in North Carolina's four-game winning streak and 5-1 start to ACC play. Since entering the starting lineup Dec. 29, the five-star freshman is averaging 22.5 points across 34.7 minutes in six total games. Suddenly, the offense is running through Jackson instead of preseason Wooden Award candidate RJ Davis, and the team results have been favorable. Jackson should continue to rise up NBA draft boards as the Tar Heels look to cement their spot in the NCAA Tournament.
