Tracking the former Tar Heels playing elsewhere during the 2024-2025 season
A lot of familiar faces will be playing in different places during the 2024-2025 college basketball season.
In total, 17 former UNC basketball players (both men and women) will be playing for different teams. Some are starting a journey with a new team while others enter their second season with the program they originally transferred to.
While some are opposed to how the transfer portal works, it doesn't hurt to support the former Tar Heels in their new homes (unless they play for Duke or NC State).
