Markell Johnson took an awkward hit to his left knee against Clemson on Wednesday night and had to be helped to locker room. While we all feared the worst (i.e., ACL tear), there is good news: Johnson dodged a major injury and could even play for NC State in the ACC tourney next week.
Update on Markell Johnson: @kells_2017 has a left knee sprain & bone bruise. He will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's ACC Tourney game.
