UNC Basketball: Armando Bacot spotted in NYC working out with NBA trainer

This year’s NBA Draft was bizarre to say the least when it came to big men. Sure, we saw Victor Wembanyama get picked immediately by San Antonio, but notable standout college bigs like Armando Bacot (did not enter the draft), Drew Timme, and Oscar Tshiebwe had next to no buzz surrounding them going into the draft despite what all three players have done for their respective schools. Is it a surprise? For those familiar with what NBA bigs look like nowadays, not really, which is why Bacot has been in the lab with a NBA trainer to help him improve his game.
