North Carolina on Sunday added a high-scoring Belmont transfer Cade Tyson.
The 6-foot-7 North Carolina native averaged 16.2 points and 5.9 rebounds as a sophomore.
“[I chose] North Carolina because I felt like that is where God was leading me,” Tyson told ZAGSBLOG.
“I feel that I can really shoot it and I also think I am pretty competitive which will be something I bring to the squad as well.”
