UNC Basketball: 2024-25 Transfer Portal Grades

During the 2024 offseason for Carolina Basketball, Hubert Davis more or less had one goal: find a big to replace at least 60% of the production that he lost in Armando Bacot. Once the transfer portal opened, name after name slipped through Davis’ fingers, and by the time the dust settled, he managed to land Ty Claude, Cade Tyson, and Ven-Allen Lubin, none of whom are true centers. Lubin was as close as you get to a big, and while he certainly can play the role of a four, he didn’t have any business playing center against a team like Duke, for instance.
