North Carolina freshman guard Coby White announced Wednesday he is entering the 2019 NBA draft.
He broke the news via Twitter:
North Carolina coach Roy Williams issued a statement following White's decision, perCarolina Basketball:
"I just loved every minute of coaching Coby. He committed to us prior to his junior year, so even though he played one season as a Tar Heel, we’ve known his family for a long time. It’s been an honor to have gotten to know them.
"His father told me he wanted his son to play for me, which is one of the neatest compliments I’ve ever been given.
