Good news: UNC Basketball is actively considering a promising star in a second transfer with excellent shooting ability.

Despite receiving little attention in this specific recruitment, the UNC basketball program is among the five finalists for this outstanding shooter.

Players with transfer portal shooting ability are sought after by the UNC basketball program.

Koby Brea, a Dayton transfer, might be the best of them all.

Brea recently finished a season in which he made 51.2% of his field goals, including an incredible 49.8% from three-point range. Top-tier programs will come calling when you can shoot at an elite level; Brea has a top five list of colleges he is considering.

North Carolina, Duke, Kansas, UConn, and Kentucky are Brea’s five finalists. The Dayton transfer held Zoom sessions with prospective candidates, which helped him focus his recruitment.

The Washington Heights, New York native’s ability to score from almost anywhere on the court would be a big asset to the UNC basketball team and help the Tar Heels offense thrive. Additionally, he would assist in filling in for Cormac Ryan, who had a significant impact during his one and only season at North Carolina.

The UNC basketball program has not formally added any new players to the roster, which is why the transfer portal rumors keep coming up. The Tar Heels have five scholarships to deal with following Harrison Ingram’s decision that he would enter the NBA Draft. Adding Koby Brea to the roster this offseason might be a significant addition for the UNC basketball team.

Since there were few rumors that North Carolina was involved in Brea’s recruiting in the first place, their involvement has remained secret. But it appears that their Zoom meeting with the Dayton transfer had a significant effect since now the Blue Blood programs will have to fight for a commitment from what is likely the best shooter available in the transfer portal.

Harrison Ingram of UNC basketball has declared for the 2024 NBA Draft.

Harrison Ingram has declared that he will join the 2024 NBA Draft following his one season with the University of North Carolina basketball team.

The future intentions for Harrison Ingram have been eagerly anticipated by supporters of the UNC basketball team.

Ingram made his plans known on Saturday afternoon.

Harrison Ingram officially announced his candidacy for the 2024 NBA Draft after playing just one season for the UNC basketball team. It doesn’t seem like Ingram plans to keep his collegiate eligibility based on his social media message.

Hubert Davis and the Tar Heels were very fortunate to have Ingram join them during the previous offseason. He added toughness, integrity, and determination to Chapel Hill. Although he played his first two years of college ball at Stanford, he truly became a Tar Heel as his stats just kept getting better.

Ingram was assigned by the Tar Heels to play the position of “stretch four,” which was a little different from what he had played before. He welcomed the challenge because he not only became a better rebounder but also played a significant role in creating space on the floor for his teammates and himself.

Since some of Ingram’s best Tar Heel performances occurred against the program’s fiercest opponents, the occasion was never too big for him. Tar Heel supporters will never forget his debut in the rivalry between Duke and North Carolina, nor his incredible showing against NC State in Raleigh.

His personality will live on forever since it’s evident that he lived up to his Tar Heel identity. Even though he clearly loves North Carolina, he should now take a chance on himself and follow his ambition because his time in Chapel Hill helped set him for success.
