Roy Williams watches 2016 SF Braxton Blackwell
Posted Jan 22, 2014
Roy Williams and assistant coach Steve Robinson were in Lewisburg, Tennessee Tuesday night to watch 2016 4-star small forward Braxton Blackwell (6'6", 200). Blackwell scored 25 points to lead Christ Presbyterian Academy (CPA) to an 82-40 win at Marshall County.
Blackwell currently holds offers from Indiana, Florida, NC State, Virginia, Tennessee, and Vanderbilt, along with several others. He does not yet have an offer from Roy Williams, but if he were to receive one, Blackwell would be the second small forward in UNC's 2016 basketball recruiting class to hold an offer (joining 5-star Jayson Tatum).
