Ian Jackson Named CBS Sports National Freshman Of The Week
Posted Jan 1, 2025
After providing a valuable spark off the bench in UNC's comeback win over UCLA on Dec. 21, former 5-star recruit Ian Jackson made his first career start Sunday against Campbell. Jackson scored 26 points and logged a career-high 36 minutes in the Tar Heels 97-81 win. If he continues to play at this level, his stock will rise ahead of the 2025 NBA Draft.
