Sophomore center Sam Funches "building a relationship" with UNC
Posted Aug 30, 2023
Germantown (Miss.) sophomore Sam Funches has a growing list of offers, including one from NC State. And he's hearing more from several bluebloods, with the UNC basketball staff being one of them. "Duke, Kentucky, UNC, Memphis, and UCLA," the 6-foot-11, 210-pound lefty, said this week. "They have shown a lot of interest, and we are building a relationship."
