The summer lockdown hasn't deterred Armando Bacot from getting in workouts with a variety of Tar Heels.
This would traditionally be the time of year when current players are playing against Carolina basketball alumni virtually every day in afternoon and evening pickup games. But campus remains closed and basketball players don't return until July 6. Fortunately for Bacot, there's no shortage of good talent in his hometown of Richmond and the surrounding area. The rising sophomore has worked out several times with 2009 Carolina national champion Ed Davis, a fellow Richmond native.
"He's such a smart player, and there's so much I can learn from someone who has been in the NBA for ten seasons," Bacot said.
