Michael Young helped lead the Panthers to a 10-seed in the East Region with his 16 points and seven rebounds per game. He was ninth in the ACC in points per game and tenth in rebounds.

Young and the Panthers have a tough matchup against the Wisconsin Badgers in the opening round of the tournament. He’ll need to put together another complete game as well as getting some help from teammates Jamel Artis and James Robinson if they’re going to advance to the round of 32.
