UNC Basketball Summer Preview: Puff Johnson

Posted Jul 12, 2021
Puff Johnson did not serve much of an in-game role for UNC last season due to injuries and the emergence of Kerwin Walton. However, he was a four-star recruit out of high school and ranked 69th overall in his class according to 247sports. At 6’8, 190 pounds, Johnson’s combination of length and shooting ability have coaches excited about his potential. (Tar Heel Blog)
