North Carolina Tar Heels 2017-18 Basketball Team Preview and Prediction

Posted Oct 25, 2017
With talent on the perimeter and so many unproven players in the post, the Tar Heels figure to be more guard-oriented than usual. If UNC’s key players stay healthy (something already in question following Joel Berry's injury) and the team can get some solid minutes from the freshman bigs, the Tar Heels should be in the mix near the top of the ACC standings.
