Tar Heels perform well in NBA summer leagues
Posted Jul 17, 2007
The Pepsi Pro Summer League, which took place in Orlando from July 9th through 13th, featured six NBA franchises, including the Charlotte Bobcats, Chicago Bulls, Indiana Pacers, Miami Heat, New Jersey Nets, and Orlando Magic. Three former Tar Heels; Raymond Felton, Jackie Manuel, and Jawad Williams, all participated with the Charlotte Bobcats squad. While Sean May is still a member of the Bobcats, he did not play in any of the league's games, which were held at the Magic practice facility. (Carolina Blue)
