ACC Points-per-Minute Leaders

The following list offers a look at which ACC players are being the most productive on a per-minute basis. It shouldn't be surprising to see three North Carolina players at the top of the list because not only are those Tar Heels good scorers, they also play a relatively (in comparison to the rest of the league's star players) low number of minutes. Only Ray Felton averages over 30 minutes per game for the Heels. May, McCants and Jawad each average about 25 minutes per game.

JJ Redick--the ACC leader in PPG--checks in at #4. Ra'Sean Dickey (GT) is one of the surprises on the list...perhaps Paul Hewitt should give the kid a few more minutes off the bench.
