Draft Night Arrives for Johnson, Little, White

Posted Jun 20, 2019
Coby White is projected to be among the first 10 picks at Thursday's NBA Draft. Most mock drafts have him going to the Cleveland Cavaliers at No. 5, the Phoenix Suns at No. 6, or the Chicago Bulls at No. 7. It will be much higher than most people thought it would be at this time last year. Roy Williams, however, recognized White's potential long before then. (GoHeels.com)
