A Tar Heel trio dominated the NBA G-League Saturday, with [autotag]Tony Bradley[/autotag], [autotag]Theo Pinson[/autotag], and[autotag] Justin Jackson[/autotag] combining for 63 points for the Texas Legends.
Texas took on the South Bay Lakers, and the former UNC stars put on a show. All three finished with a double-double as Bradley ended up with 26 points and 15 rebounds, Justin Jackson had 20 points and 13 rebounds, and Pinson finished with 17 points and 15 assists.
All three players were teammates on the 2017 UNC basketball team that won the national championship, so it’s great to see the trio teamed up and still dominating. All three have had opportunities in the NBA, but are still looking to find their way back permanently. Performances like this go a long way, especially as teams attempt to grab missing pieces during the second half of the season.
