Fans are still waiting for a huge game from North Carolina freshman forward John Henson, but you can certainly see the potential. With about 13 minutes left in the first half, Henson, a 6-foot-10 small forward, stole an inbounds pass near the 3-point line, then raced to the other end of the floor for a jarring dunk.

North Carolina might have another 7-footer by the time the season is over. Forward Ed Davis , 6-10, tweeted Thursday, "im not cuttin my hair to the season is over." Was he serious? Time will tell.
