UNC Basketball: Antawn Jamison on Lakers, Joel Berry & 2018 Tar Heels

Despite being more than four years removed from his playing days, Antawn Jamison is still actively involved in the game of basketball.

The former University of North Carolina star and 1998 National Player of the Year retired in 2014 after a 17-year NBA career that included All-Rookie honors, an NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award and two All-Star Game appearances.

Jamison didn’t stay away from the game for long, quickly transitioning to a broadcasting role with Time Warner Cable SportsNet and working as a television analyst for Los Angeles Lakers games.

In the fall of 2017, he was hired by the Lakers to be a scout for the organization.
