Deja Kelly Leaving UNC: "I believe it is time to move on"
Posted May 3, 2024
Deja Kelly won’t return to UNC for a fifth college season, saying she is a “Tar Heel for life” but that it’s time to move on. The three-time All-ACC first-team women's basketball selection made the announcement Friday on social media but didn’t reveal her plans further than that. She is eligible for a fifth college season under the NCAA’s COVID-19 rules.
