For the second year in a row, UNC basketball will lose a player to the transfer portal. On Thursday evening, Greg Barnes at Inside Carolina broke that the rising senior plans to enter the transfer portal.
Huffman came to UNC in 2017 as part of the five-man recruiting class that also included Jalek Felton, Sterling Manley, Andrew Platek, and Garrison Brooks. At the time he was viewed a multi-year project, though 247 Sports listed him as a four-star recruit and the #1 player in North Carolina for 2017. His size, raw strength, facial expressions, and willingness to dunk anything within one foot of the basket made him an early favorite among fans.
