## Resource

Following Henri Veesaar's decision to enter the NBA Draft, North Carolina faces the (quite literal) tall task of replacing The Big Estonian. Unfortunately, there aren't many options left in the portal currently, and the 1 or 2 viable options are further down the road with other schools. Will UNC look international? Will they wait on potential 5in5 returners? It was an other ACC series victory for the Diamond Heels over the weekend, taking down rival Duke in Durham. Meanwhile, women's lacrosse secured their 8th ACC Tournament title in the last 10 Tournaments.
