Lucas: Moments

Brandon Robinson remembers the moment.

He was warming up before a game, going through a typical layup line, when Roy Williams walked into the gym. "Look at that!" one of his excited teammates told him. "That's Roy Williams who just walked in."

"I looked at him right then," Robinson remembers, "and I said, 'I'm going to try and go crazy in this game and see what happens.'"

Robinson scored 27 points, the Carolina head coach liked what he saw, and five years later Brandon Robinson was standing at center court in the Smith Center, all alone with thousands of eyes on him.
