The UNC basketball program will be visiting five-star small forward Mackenzie Mgbako on Tuesday.

Despite still having a ways to go with their 2022 recruiting class, Hubert Davis and the North Carolina Tar Heels are hard at work on the class of 2023. They’ve already extended a half-dozen scholarship offers to high school juniors, and all but one are of the five-star variety.

One of them is consensus top-20 prospect Mackenzie Mgbako, a 6-foot-7, 185-pound small forward that hails from Gladstone, New Jersey.
