Summary
North Carolina just pulled off a shocker by hiring Michael Malone, the NBA champion coach, to lead their college team — a bold move after 20 years away from the NCAA. And less than two months in, Malone’s already reeling in a major win: Matt Able, a top NBA prospect projected to go in the second round, has decided to stay in school and join the Tar Heels. Able’s scoring ability, three-point range, and ACC experience make him the perfect fit for UNC’s struggling roster — and if Malone can keep drawing talent like this, the Tar Heels could become a force in college hoops.
