Former Tar Heels draft up their own UNC basketball squads

On Theo Pinson’s ‘Run Your Race’ live stream during the Eastern Conference Finals, a trio of former UNC basketball players conducted a Tar Heel Draft.

Theo Pinson has been very active during the NBA Postseason.

Although his Dallas Mavericks failed to make the playoffs, the former UNC basketball star has been keeping busy with his podcast, ‘Run Your Race.’

Pinson has been live streaming during some of the playoff contests, as he’s had some special guests join him (both on set and virtually). On Tuesday night, fellow former Tar Heels Justin Jackson and Kenny Williams joined the show, as the trio had some fun surrounding the historic UNC basketball program.

The three former Tar Heels agreed to do an all-time UNC basketball draft, where each person drafts their own starting five. Of course, Pinson had the first overall pick (as it should be, given it’s his show!) and he selected the “G.O.A.T,” Michael Jordan.

Jackson followed up by taking Vince Carter, while Williams elected to take star forward Antawn Jamison.

Here are the squads that each former UNC basketball player ended up with:

Team Theo

Joel Berry II
Michael Jordan
James Worthy
Tyler Hansbrough
Brendan Haywood

Team Justin

Raymond Felton
Marcus Paige
Vince Carter
Marvin Williams
Sean May

Team Kenny

Ty Lawson
Rashad McCants
Jerry Stackhouse
Antawn Jamison
Rasheed Wallace

Of course, each team has its strengths and weaknesses, but all three possess some of the best players to ever wear the Carolina Blue.

Now the question is: which team is the best?
