Posted Aug 13, 2019
UNC’s Ed Cota (1996-2000) went undrafted by the NBA due to his size. Yet, under the Tar Heels’ keen player development, he emerged as one of the best true point guards in his era of NCAA basketball. With three Final Four appearances and a standing UNC record of 1,030 assists, Cota is proof that the Tar Heels know how to develop point guards. (Sportscasting.com)
