Chansky’s Notebook: Free Throw Follies

There was always going to be a drop off after the departure of R.J. Davis, whose career free throw percentage of 86.1 is a program record. But UNC couldn’t have counted on Seth Trimble dropping 14 percentage points from 82 percent last season to 68 percent this season. Or that Henri Veesaar would drop from 68 percent at Arizona to 61 percent at UNC. (Chapelboro.com)

The Switch Has Flipped for UNC Basketball

With three games left before March, there should be real optimism. The Tar Heels are 22-6 and beating quality opponents without one of the best players in the country. Just as important, if not more, the depth is improving and gaining confidence. The last few games, this team's ceiling is pretty high. "The sky is the limit for us," Derek Dixon said. (TarHeel247)

Caleb Wilson's Injury And The All-American Question

This has got to be the best freshman class that I’ve seen in my time covering college basketball. It’s just phenomenal what we’ve seen across the board.

Jackson Watkins' Project of Reflection and Inspiration

The experience, exhilarating as it was, would one day come to an end. Jackson Watkins knew that, of course, and he understood.

Suiting up for the Tar Heels, you see, had been his lifelong dream. (Collegiate School)

I’m able to practice, I’m able to play games, playing without any pain, so it feels good." (Inside Carolina)

Caleb Wilson-Henri Veesaar Tandem Could Take UNC Basketball To All-ACC Heights

No basketball program regularly places two players on the All-ACC first team anymore. (UNC has done it only once since 2012.) In fact, in each of the past five seasons, the five first-team members have represented five different ACC schools. There’s a possibility that will change this year, thanks to forward Caleb Wilson and center Henri Veesaar. (Chapelboro.com)
