It’s not a big secret that Michigan basketball is looking to add players for next season and one potential addition, graduate transfer Justin Pierce, announced his decision to go to North Carolina next season.
Pierce announced his decision on Twitter Thursday and the 6-foot-7 wing, who averaged over 14 points per game the past two seasons for William and Mary announced he would play for the Tar Heels, over Michigan basketball and Notre Dame.
While the Wolverines appeared to lose ground on Pierce in recent days and also maybe a little interest with the pursuit of Franz Wagner, Pierce still would have been a good fit for head coach John Beilein’s offense, yet he will play for Roy Williams instead.
