Forward V.J. King, center Daniel Giddens, guard Eric Davis receiving early interest from UNC

Posted Oct 8, 2012
According to Rivals.com basketball recruiting analyst Eric Bossi, 2015 center , 2016 small forward , and 2015 combo guard are receiving early interest from North Carolina. Both players competed this past weekend at the USA Basketball Minicamp in Colorado Springs, CO:

"Giddens mentioned offers from Oregon State, Georgia, Ole Miss, Georgia Tech and Maryland to go with attention from North Carolina, Georgetown, Alabama and many others."

"A crafty, high-scoring 6-foot-2 combo guard from Michigan, has a nose for making things happen on the offensive end. He plays with confidence, changes speeds and gets a lot done. Iowa State just offered and Michigan, Michigan State, Duke, North Carolina and N.C. State have already been keeping tabs." (Source)

"For the second day in a row, 2016 wing looked like a very high level prospect. His bread and butter is his mid range jumper, but he's a good athlete with excellent instincts on the floor. King mentioned Ohio State, Michigan, North Carolina, Michigan State, Indiana and College of Charleston as teams with early interest." (Source)
