After historic NBA draft night, challenges await UNC, Duke

Posted Jun 29, 2012
UNC can handle a talent drain like the one it sustained Thursday in the NBA draft. Of this, Bobby Frasor is sure. It has happened before, and six years ago, Frasor helped the Tar Heels recover from a draft hangover. The Tar Heels will have to do it again after they lost four first-round picks Thursday, and so will Duke, to a lesser extent, after it lost two first-rounders. (Raleigh News & Observer)
