Chris Seward - AP It wasn’t the prettiest of performances you’ll see from the Tar Heels, but they did enough to earn a 95-53 win last night over Winston-Salem State, in the final exhibition of the preseason, ahead of the 2025-26 regular season, which begins on Monday against Central Arkansas. After Carolina started the game on an extended 15-2 run, it looked like they’d make quick work of the Division II Rams, but WSSU would make the game ugly, and found themselves down just

@UNC_Basketball Tonight, the Tar Heels will play in their final preseason exhibition ahead of the 2025-26 season, which gets started on Monday against Central Arkansas. Last Friday, Carolina lost on the road against #8 BYU, 78-76, in a game that they played without projected starter Luka Bogavac. Freshman Caleb Wilson went toe to toe with BYU’s AJ Dybantsa, totaling a 22-point, 10-rebound, double-double. Seth Trimble added 17 in the loss, but Carolina more than looked the par

The 2025-26 college basketball season is officially less than a week away, with Carolina set to open the season against Central Arkansas next Monday in the Smith Center. The Tar Heels are set to host Winston-Salem State tomorrow night, in the final preseason exhibition, after losing to BYU in exhibition competition last Friday night.  With the season right around the corner, all the preseason watch lists are in the process of being unveiled, and earlier today, senior guard Se

KSL News Last night, the Tar Heels traveled to Salt Lake City, Utah, to take on the preseason-ranked #8 BYU Cougars in an exhibition matchup, and ultimately fell short 78-76, in a game that showed a lot of promise for a UNC roster featuring 11 new players. One of those 11 newcomers, Luka Bogavac, was not in uniform, as he awaits clearance from the University after being deemed eligible by the NCAA. With that in mind, Hubert Davis started a bigger lineup, going with Kyan Evans

@UNC_Baksetball For the first time since March, the Tar Heels will take the floor and play a competitive game of basketball, although tonight’s game is technically an exhibition. A few years ago, the NCAA voted to allow schools to play in two exhibitions per preseason, as long as one of the exhibitions benefits a charity foundation. Last year, UNC played at Memphis, in an exhibition that benefited St. Jude’s hospital, and tonight they’ll travel to Salt Lake City, Utah, to tak

Bob Donnan- Imagn Images We have been waiting for an update on Luka Bogavac and on Wednesday, head coach Hubert Davis gave it to us. According to Davis, Bogavac has been cleared to play by the NCAA, but still faces a new challenge when it comes to getting on the court. Per Inside Carolina, Bogavac still must overcome “internal steps” before he is actually able to join the team on the court officially this season. It’s not that he has been admitted to the school; that step was

Sports Illustrated Last week, the ACC held its annual preseason event in Charlotte, where coaches and players met with the assembled media ahead of the 2025-26 season. It’s during that time that the preseason voting takes place, and today the results were released, and they set the bar of expectations for the UNC program from a media perspective going into this season. Despite a roster that features 11 new players, and a coach that is believed to be coaching for his job, the

GoHeels With ACC Tip-Off behind us, we’re getting closer and closer to the college hoops season, and another sign of that is the annual preseason poll, which was released earlier today, and to no surprise, it contained Hubert Davis and the UNC Tar Heels. After an off-season overhaul that saw Carolina bring in 11 new players, UNC will begin the 2025-26 season, #25 in the AP Poll, meaning the program will begin the season preseason ranked for all 5 of Hubert Davis’s seasons on
