No. 10: Mitch Kupchak

UNC Basketball Career Stats: 13.5 PPG, 8.5 RPG, 1.3 APG, 1.1 BPG, 58.6 FG%

Recording what we like to call a “career double-double,” Mitch Kupchak recorded 1,611 points and 1,006 rebounds as a member of the UNC basketball program.

Kupchak was a very strong presence down low for the Tar Heels during his four years on campus. He helped lead North Carolina to an ACC regular season title in 1975-1976, a year in which he averaged 17.6 points and 11.3 rebounds while shooting 57.6 percent from the floor.

A two-time All-ACC selection, Kupchak was also named a Consensus All-American and the ACC Player of the Year during his senior season.
