ESPN quoted North Carolina coach Roy Williams Monday night as saying injured point guard Ty Lawson will sit out Thursday's opening round NCAA tournament game vs. Radford if he doesn't participate in practice today and Wednesday.
“If Ty doesn't participate in at least half the practice (today) and the full practice Wednesday, he won't play Thursday,” Williams said.
Lawson, the ACC Player of the Year, missed UNC's two ACC Tournament games last week with a jammed right big toe.
No. 1 seed UNC plays No. 16 Radford at 2:50 p.m. Thursday at the Greensboro Coliseum.
