Indya Nivar happy at second chance to play for UNC after season at Stanford

Posted Nov 2, 2023
UNC women's basketball coach Courtney Banghart was happy to see Indya Nivar enter the transfer portal after only one season at Stanford, but immediately wondered why the 5-10 guard didn’t pick North Carolina when it was one of her final three schools. "She had a really poignant answer," said Banghart. "She said she didn’t know we'd get good so fast." (Tar Heel Tribune)
