The North Carolina Tar Heels entered the race for four-star power forward Zeke Nnaji a little late.
It was after Nnaji’s final official visit to Purdue that head coach Roy Williams met with him for an in-home visit in Minnesota. Williams showed interest in Nnaji as he’s hoping to add him to his 2019 recruiting class that already includes five-star center Armando Bacot and three-star point guard Jeremiah Francis.
The Tar Heels were able to land an unofficial visit from Nnaji after he took all five of his visits and released his final list. Despite not getting an official, Williams may have made a big enough of an impression to give the Tar Heels a shot.
