The North Carolina Tar Heels went to the NCAA Tournament title game in their first season under head coach Hubert Davis, but they have not advanced past the Sweet 16 in the three years since. They snuck into the field this past season before losing to Ole Miss in the first round. Leading scorer RJ Davis completed his storied career, leaving a major void in the North Carolina basketball lineup. However, the North Carolina basketball coaching staff has been active in the college basketball transfer portal.

The portal will remain open for several more days, so Davis and his staff will continue evaluating the available players. Which college basketball transfers could wind up in Chapel Hill?

North Carolina basketball roster news

The Tar Heels have seen activity from both sides of the portal, with guards Elliot Cadeau and Ian Jackson among the players to leave. They have added several transfers to fill the gaps, including Colorado State guard Kyan Evans and West Virginia wing Jonathan Powell. North Carolina lacked size last season, but it has already earned transfer commitments from Henri Veesaar (Arizona) and Jarin Stevenson (Alabama).

Veesaar has a well-rounded offensive game and will serve as a rim protector, while Stevenson offers more versatility defensively to go along with perimeter shooting. Five-star recruit Caleb Wilson, who is the No. 6 player in the 2025 class (247Sports Composite), headlines UNC's three-player class. He should have an instant impact as a defender and rebounder, while fellow freshmen Derek Dixon and Isaiah Denis might need time to work their way into the rotation. Get the latest North Carolina basketball roster news from InsideCarolina.
