Joel Berry (ankle) expected to practice as normal for North Carolina
North Carolina Tar Heels junior guard Joel Berry (ankle) is expected to resume his normal practice routine on Friday in anticipation of the Sweet Sixteen matchup with the Butler Bulldogs, according to Andrew Carter of the News & Observer.
What It Means:
Berry originally injured his ankle versus Texas Southern in the Round of 64. He managed to play against Arkansas on Sunday and is good to go for Friday's matchup with Butler. The question will be one of effectiveness after he went 3-for-21 in the first two rounds of the tournament.
Berry shot 43.6 percent from the floor and 40.1 percent from three while scoring 14.4 points per game this season.
