Roy Williams watches 2019 prospect Matthew Hurt

Just hours after North Carolina beat Florida State on Saturday, Roy Williams was back on the recruiting trail to see 2019 small forward Matthew Hurt.

With Williams in attendance, Hurt scored 39 point and grabbed 11 rebounds.

Hurt is a 6-foot-8, 200-pound prospect out of Rochester, Minnesota who Williams has prioritized in recent months, making multiple trips to see him play.

He’s a consensus five-star, top-10 prospect in his class and would be a huge boost to North Carolina’s 2019 recruiting class.

Hurt currently holds offers from Arizona, Florida, Kansas, Louisville, North Carolina, Oregon and Wisconsin among others. Given how early it is in his recruitment, he’s likely to add a number of big name programs to that list before committing.
