Despite being one of the most decorated and accomplished players in UNC history, Antawn Jamison is often overlooked when discussing the greatest Tar Heel players. A look back at his career proves why he's a player who should never be forgotten.
The North Carolina men’s basketball team held one of its weekly Zoom meetings on Sunday, putting an emphasis on the group's aspects outside of the game of basketball. “As I was growing up and even up until the last several months," said UNC men's basketball coach Roy Williams, "my biggest heroes were my teachers that I’ve had all the way through high school and college and the mentors that I’ve had.

April 5 was a momentous day for UNC sports fans as the North Carolina men’s basketball team won its third national championship in school history.

With the NBA season suspended, possibly for the remainder of the year, we took a look at the three former UNC players who may have completed their rookie season in the NBA: Coby White, Cameron Johnson and Nassir Little.
