Dennis Smith Jr. visited UNC Tuesday and received an offer from Roy Williams. "I'm glad to have it," Smith told CarolinaBlue. "I've been waiting a long time for it. I feel like I deserved it." The 6-foot-3, 180-pound prospect out of Fayetteville (NC) is ranked as the No. 1 point guard in the 2016 class by 247Sports.

I can push (the ball)."
