UNC Basketball 2022-23 Player Preview: Puff Johnson

Posted Oct 10, 2022
After losing last season's leading three-point shooter, Brady Manek, Puff Johnson's path to more playing time for UNC starts behind the arc. Though Johnson is a career 20 percent three-point shooter, improvements are expected. "What stands out is how active he is. He's very aggressive on defense. He's active as a rebounder. He brings that energy." (Inside Carolina)
