Tar Heels in NBA: Seven, possibly eight, UNC basketball alums in playoffs this weekend
Posted Apr 15, 2022
Seven Tar Heels, and potentially an eighth, will begin play in the NBA playoffs this weekend. Cameron Johnson’s Phoenix Suns are a threat to win the title and the Dallas Mavericks, with Reggie Bullock and Theo Pinson, are playing like they also could make a run. Also in the playoffs are Danny Green, Coby White, Tony Bradley, and Day'Ron Sharpe.
