Georgia Tech freshman forward Julian Royal had nine points and six rebounds Sunday at North Carolina, his second consecutive impressive showing.
Royal was coming off of a career-high 11 points and five rebounds against Miami, when he played a season high 29 minutes. Georgia Tech has lost five straight, and nine of their last ten. When you mix in Glen Rice, Jr.'s injured toe, the writing is on the wall for increased minutes from Royal. He could be a sneaky freshman play during February.
