ACC Preview with Jamir Watkins & Tobi Lawal — HPP S4-E12

Rich and Drew break down the Atlantic Coast Conference, including an interesting discussion on Tony Bennett’s unexpected retirement at UVA and predictions for NCAA Tournament bids and individual awards.  Two rising stars in the conference join the show, Florida State guard/forward Jamir Watkins and Virginia Tech forward Tobi Lawal. Last season, the 6-foot-7 Watkins averaged 15.6 points, 6 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.9 steals per game while shooting 46 percent from the floor.  An all-around producer, he ranked in the top 10 of the ACC for both PER (24.2) and plus-minus (9.1). The ultra-athletic Lawal is a Defensive Player of the Year candidate in the ACC.  Last season with VCU, he played 19 minutes per game, averaging 8 points, 6 rebounds and 1.6 combined steals and blocks while shooting 67 percent from the floor.  CHAPTERS: 1.  ACC Preview (3:43)DukeNorth CarolinaWake ForestMiami (FL)NC StateLouisvilleClemsonPittsburghSyracuseVirginiaSMUGeorgia TechFlorida StateCaliforniaStanfordNotre DameVirginia TechBoston College 2.  Jamir Watkins Interview (2:16:35) 3.  Tobi Lawal Interview (2:32:20)
