Overview
- North Carolina, which added Utah’s Terrence Brown Jr. and NC State’s Matt Able on Tuesday, now has a rebuilt guard rotation for Michael Malone’s first season.
- Brown averaged 19.9 points last season for the Utes and chose UNC over blueblood options, giving the Tar Heels a proven high-usage scorer at guard.
- Isaiah Denis withdrew from the transfer portal to return to Chapel Hill, adding needed depth after multiple backcourt departures.
- Former FAU forward Maxim Logue also committed, while starting center Henri Veesaar is testing the NBA Draft and sits No. 44 on ESPN’s board.
- Reporting indicates UNC is less likely to land Wake Forest scorer Juke Harris as Michigan and Tennessee press harder and a $3 million price point is floated in a tight portal market.
