UNC Basketball: Tar Heels begin practice on Thursday

Rejoice! Basketball season is one more day closer.

On Thursday, the North Carolina Tar Heels men’s basketball team will begin preparation for the upcoming 2019-20 season, the first time they will hit the court since Summer workouts. The Tar Heels are coming off a disappointing end to last season, falling to Auburn in the Sweet 16.

As we go into this season, the Tar Heels have lost five of their top six scorers with freshmen Coby White and Nassir Little bolting for the NBA Draft as well as Luke Maye, Cameron Johnson and Kenny Williams graduating.

But as is the case usually for the Tar Heels, they have restocked.
