Greatest former UNC athlete by state (Minnesota): Adam Boone

Posted May 25, 2019
Adam Boone played two seasons at UNC. As a freshman, he was part of a Tar Heels’ team that reached the No. 1 ranking, and as a sophomore he was on the worst team in UNC history. Boone was a backup point guard behind Ronald Curry in 2000-01 and had a leg up the following season. But the Tar Heels struggled and Boone transferred home to Minnesota. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
