Drake Powell, Ian Jackson Address Future Plans
Posted Mar 24, 2025
A pair of highly touted Tar Heels soon will have pro-level decisions to make. Ian Jackson and Drake Powell, UNC Basketball's two Class of 2024 5-star recruits, are eligible for the 2025 NBA Draft. Neither player indicated if they were leaning one way or the other when asked after Friday's loss. Both said that night that they hadn't thought about their next steps.
