UNC to Name Court at Dean E. Smith Center After Head Coach Roy Williams

The North Carolina Tar Heels announced Thursday that they will be naming the floor at the Dean E. Smith Center the "Roy Williams Court" in honor of their current head coach.

Williams spoke about the honor in a statement:

"It's very hard to believe; it's just so flattering. I have to figure out a way to thank all my current and former players, because it may be my name on the court, but it really honors all of them because they made the plays.

"I also want to thank my family for all the support and love they've given me over the years.
