Henri Veesaar's Long Game Has Become Legit

The third question posed to UNC freshman forward Caleb Wilson following the Tar Heels' win over East Carolina on Monday would have been quite the surprise a couple of months ago. But not now. "Can we call Henri Veesaar a 3-point marksman now," a reporter asked. Wilson smiled and responded. "I'm telling you, man, he's knocking them down." (TarHeel247)

Video: Locked On Tar Heels - UNC's Caleb Wilson / Henri Veesaar Frontcourt Better Than Imagined

During the preseason, we predicted that UNC's Caleb Wilson and Henri Veesaar would combine to be the best frontcourt in the ACC. It turns out that take wasn't strong enough. The duo is actually a top 5 frontcourt nationally. And the scary thing is they're just getting started. (View Video)

Luka Bogavac's Blueprint: Aggressive Play, Short Memory

The lid came off the bucket for Luka Bogavac on Monday, breaking a two-game slump and setting the blueprint for how the first-year Tar Heel can be a consistent contributor the rest of the season.

Chansky’s Notebook: Performative

East Carolina, literally and figuratively, is not in the Tar Heels’ league. The Pirates walked the plank of UNC's most performative victory that gave the joyful crowd a prelude to Christmas with the 99-51 win. The only shortfall was not scoring 100 points that comes with Bojangles biscuits. That, and the Crumbl Cookies promotion, kept the fans extra engaged. (Chapelboro.com)
