Caleb Wilson's selection at No. 4 in NBA Draft puts him among UNC Basketball royalty

Posted Jun 24, 2026
There are several ways to be considered a legend at a blue-blood program like UNC. One criteria would be where a player is selected in the NBA Draft. When Caleb Wilson was drafted No. 4, he entered a select group of Tar Heel royalty. Seven players have gone at that spot and are not only huge names in Chapel Hill, but in the world of college basketball. (TarHeel247)
