Tar Heels in pros: Coby White returns; Caleb Love flourishing in Portland; Cormac Ryan scores 32

Posted Jan 6, 2026
The Portland Trail Blazers gave Caleb Love a chance, and a two-way contract, and he’s rewarded them with the best stretch of games among undrafted rookies in the NBA. In the last eight games, Love has flourished, averaging 16.8 points per game. Coby White returned for the Chicago Bulls after missing the last three games with tightness in his calf.
