North Carolina, Duke set to dominate NBA Draft
Posted Jun 19, 2019
UNC is expected to have three players taken in the first round of the NBA Draft. That would give Roy Williams 21 first rounders at UNC, and it would be his fourth season with three or more first-round picks. Coby White is expected to go to Chicago at No. 7. Nassir Little is slotted to go in the mid first round, and Cameron Johnson also has a first round chance.
