Wading Into The UNC Basketball Record Book
Posted Jan 15, 2020
Perhaps UNC's most balanced team was the 1988-1989 squad. It is the only North Carolina basketball team to have six players average double figures. Those were J.R. Reid (15.9 ppg), Kevin Madden (14.6), Steve Bucknall (13.1), Jeff Lebo (12.2), Rick Fox (11.5), and Scott Williams (11.4). This season’s team has four players averaging double figures.
