UNC Forward Garrison Brooks Enters Transfer Portal

UNC forward Garrison Brooks, the 2020 Preseason ACC Player of the Year, has entered the transfer portal, a source confirmed to Sports Illustrated.

The news comes just days after legendary coach Roy Williams retired and Hubert Davis was named the new head coach for the Tar Heels. Brooks will have a year of eligibility left thanks to the policy changes due to the COVID-19 global pandemic.

Brooks, a four-year starter, had a standout year during the 2019-20 season as he averaged 16.7 points and 8.7 rebounds per game en route to being named the ACC’s Most Improved Player.
