Alyssa Ustby reflects on USA Basketball 3x3 experience

Posted Sep 28, 2022
On Aug. 17, USA Basketball 3x3’s Twitter account posted a video of UNC women’s basketball junior Alyssa Ustby achieving a feat she never attempted in Carmichael Arena. In layup lines, the six-foot-one guard put the ball on the floor, took a few steps, and rose up for a dunk. Improved hops are not the only thing Ustby is bringing back to Chapel Hill.
