Before the 2016-17 season, the North Carolina men’s basketball team was treated to a new locker room and player’s lounge. The renovations cost around $5 million dollars and included a Jordan shoe wall with every Nike Air Jordan shoe ever made in Carolina Blue.
Massive pictures of two of Roy Williams’ favorite Tar Heels were added into the locker room. One of those players is Marvin Williams, who played at North Carolina for just one season (2004-05). Marvin came back summer after summer, though, to earn his degree and has had a successful NBA career.
The other is Marcus Paige, who graduated from UNC after the 2015-16 season.
