After one season back in Chapel Hill, it’s a return to Los Angeles for Stephanie Watts as the 21st player in UNC history to be picked in the WNBA draft. Watts became only the second Carolina player picked in the WNBA draft since 2013 and the first selected in the first round since 2008 when the Los Angeles Sparks made her the No. 10 overall pick Thursday.
