Kyan Evans' journey playing in Kansas City to starting for UNC men's basketball

Posted Oct 29, 2025
When Kyan Evans was around 10 years old, he was in his sister Kelsey Pauly's car, on the way to Taco Bell. Out of nowhere, Kyan turned to Pauly, telling her that he had two possible career paths in life: Make $10,000 a month playing basketball or be the general manager of a Buffalo Wild Wings. Now, around a decade later, Kyan is doing the first one. (Daily Tar Heel)
