Leaky Black To Return For Fifth Season

CHAPEL HILL – University of North Carolina senior forward Leaky Black will return for a fifth season of college basketball.

The NCAA allowed players an extra season due to the pandemic.

Black started all 38 games in which he played this season. The Concord, N.C., native shot career-high percentages from the floor and free throw line and led the Tar Heels in assist-turnover ratio. He earned ACC All-Defensive team honors and was a finalist for the Lefty Driesell Defensive Player of the Year Award.

"I can't think of anybody better to coach and be around every day than Leaky," says Carolina head coach Hubert Davis.
