Tar Heels in NBA: No ‘blending in’ for Caleb Wilson; Coby White ready to lead in Charlotte

Posted Sep 29, 2026
Caleb Wilson spent Chicago Bulls media day making it clear he doesn’t plan to ease into his rookie season. Asked about his approach entering a Bulls locker room that includes 23-year-old forward Matas Buzelis and veteran point guard Josh Giddey, Wilson didn’t hedge. "There’s no leadership while blending in, so I’m definitely not going to try to blend in." (Tar Heel Tribune)
