UNC Basketball: Transfer portal shopping list

Carolina heads into another offseason that demands a myriad of player movement. The Tar Heels will definitely lose two starters, Cormac Ryan and Armando Bacot, to graduation. Big decisions need to be made by RJ Davis and Harrison Ingram, which will have cascading second and third order effects on players like Seth Trimble and Zayden High. What will Hubert Davis’s nucleus look like? What holes will he need to fill, and how will he try to fill them?

In his three years at Carolina, Coach Davis has been a pretty reliable recruiter in the transfer portal. While nobody has a 100% hit rate, he has found quality starters that played vital roles in his three teams, one that made a hot run at the end of his first season to the national championship game, and one that got Carolina back on proper footing, winning the ACC regular season championship and earning a #1 seed.
