It won’t be a seamless adjustment for Cameron Johnson at UNC, but there’s no question his arrival from Pitt rates as the most important addition for last season’s national championship team. Johnson, a 6-foot-8 graduate transfer, is expected to move into the wing forward position previously manned by junior Justin Jackson, who left a year early to start an NBA career. (WRAL Sports Fan)
