John Starks speaks to Tar Heel players ahead of UCLA game

Posted Dec 23, 2024
"I had one of my former teammates come to the pregame meal, John Starks," UNC coach Hubert Davis said. "He talked to them about what it means to play in New York and play in the Garden. The way that they came back and the way they fought and how resilient they were reminded me of what being a Knick is all about. I was really proud of them." (On3.com)
