Zayden High Comes Off Bench, Continues Upward Trend for UNC Basketball

Posted Feb 22, 2026
With 6:25 to play in Saturday’s first half, Zayden High swatted the ball out of William Kyle’s hands, dove to the floor between Kyle’s legs in front of the UNC bench to secure the steal, and immediately called timeout before being swarmed by his teammates. It was the sort of play that, Tuesday night in Raleigh, Hubert Davis said his team didn’t make. (Inside Carolina)
