UNC basketball has had quite a bit of bad recruiting luck as of late, but it appears that their bad luck has some to an end. Today four-star 2024 small forward Drake Powell announced that he will play for the Tar Heels for his college career.
Powell is a 6’5, 170-lb player from Pittsboro, NC. He currently plays for Northwood High School, and is the 17th-best small forward in the 2024 class according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. He is also listed as the 58th-best player overall, with a lot of room to grow before he sets foot in the Dean Smith center.
