Desmond Hubert commits to UNC

Posted Apr 14, 2011
Desmond Hubert had his list of schools down to a pair. On Thursday, he narrowed it further, committing to Roy Williams and North Carolina. "It's true," Hubert's AAU coach Jimmy Salmon confirmed. "When he came back from his visit he was very impressed with the entire North Carolina presentation," Salmon said. "Especially about the post playing network and fraternity of Carolina players." Hubert, a standout at New Egypt (N.J.) High, is known for his ability to block shots, but Salmon said he brings more to the table. (Scout.com)
