Acknowledging the caveat that it came against Arkansas State, Caleb Wilson’s debut for North Carolina was about as good as anyone could have asked for. The 19-year-old five-star true freshman led all scorers with 22 points in the Tar Heels’ 94-54 win on Monday night.
That performance was also historic, even by UNC’s lofty standards. Wilson became the fifth freshman in program history to score 20+ points in the last 30 seasons, joining Cole Anthony, Tyler Hansbrough, Rashad McCants, and Joseph Forte.
