Summary
North Carolina just added a towering seven-footer from Greece, Alexandros Samodurov, who turned down the NBA draft to join the Tar Heels — and he’s already got connections on campus, playing alongside fellow European recruit Neoklis Avdalas. Though his stats aren’t flashy — averaging just five points and a few rebounds — Samodurov’s efficiency inside and elite shot-blocking (nearly five blocks per game for Greece last summer) make him a defensive anchor. With Avdalas and French forward Sayon Keita also joining, UNC’s international trio could reshape their roster — and the court — this season.
