Christian Keeling came to North Carolina as a senior graduate transfer with a reputation for scoring. In three seasons at Charleston Southern, Keeling averaged 17.9 points per game on 45 percent shooting, including 35.2 percent from three-point range and better than 78 percent from the free throw line. Keeling’s best season, of course, was his junior campaign that saw him score 18.7 points per game to go along with 6.9 rebounds and 2.8 assists.
Fast forward to November 2019 when Keeling suited up with the Tar Heels for the first time. It goes without saying that the former first team All-Big South selection got off to a slow start.
