N.C. Hoops Depth on Display

Posted Mar 31, 2015
Each year since 2008, there’s been at least one high school player from North Carolina in Scout’s final top 25 rankings. It’s given birth to homegrown recruits dubbing it as the “Hoop State.” “We’ve got really good players and everyone is finding out about us,” said Edrice Adebayo, one of three N.C. natives ranked in the top 15 of the class of 2016. “There’s a lot of talent here.” Adebayo, who will hold off making a college decision until his senior season, is one of four in-state high school players with a UNC offer (Brandon Ingram, Harry Giles, Dennis Smith Jr.).
