UNC basketball finds new life on recruiting trail

Posted Jul 10, 2016
There’s a good chance Mohamed Bamba won’t be in college long. The 6-foot-11 center with the 7-8 wingspan is one of the top players in the Class of 2017 and will likely be one of the top picks in the 2018 NBA draft. He was asked about the programs that have been grabbing players like him recently. “North Carolina is another school that I really like,” Bamba said with a smile. (Fayetteville Observer)
