Bold predictions for UNC Basketball to begin the season

Posted Nov 6, 2023
Here are three bold predictions for UNC who opens the basketball season Monday against Radford at the Smith Center. 1. Elliot Cadeau will become the first freshman to lead the ACC in assists since NC State’s Dennis Smith Jr. in 2017. 2. UNC will be among the best 3-point shooting teams. 3. They will win the ACC Tournament but just miss the Final Four. (Fayetteville Observer)
