The UNC basketball team is considering bringing in a big man transfer from the SEC.
This SEC transfer is just another big guy that Hubert Davis and the UNC basketball team are constantly searching for.
The UNC basketball program has already missed out on some of the best big men available in the transfer portal.
Still, Hubert Davis and associates haven’t given up on their pursuit.
Ven-Allen Lubin, formerly of Vanderbilt, is a player that has attracted the interest of the program as the Tar Heels investigate their alternatives.
Fans should keep a careful check on this name over the coming weeks, since David Sisk of Tar Heel Illustrated was the first to confirm the interaction between Lubin and the Tar Heels.
Lubin, who was 6 feet 8 inches tall, was a center in Vanderbilt’s tiny lineup. The Orlando, Florida native started all 26 games this season after transferring from Notre Dame following his freshman year, scoring 12.3 points and grabbing 6.3 rebounds per game on average. On May 1, the last day the site was accessible to new users, he then went back into the transfer portal.
The UNC basketball team appears to be drawn to Lubin’s versatility because he can play both forward and center. With his high level of athleticism and reputation as a terrific rebounder, he might be a valuable addition to the Tar Heels for the 2024–2025 campaign.
Given their resources, North Carolina might have an advantage in this recruitment. Lubin played for Notre Dame alongside former Tar Heel Cormac Ryan, and at Vanderbilt, he was coached by former UNC basketball player Jerry Stackhouse. Perhaps one or both of the former Tar Heels are called upon to assist in this recruitment campaign.
In order to strengthen its roster for the upcoming season, the UNC basketball team is thoroughly examining all of its options through the transfer site. Expect the Tar Heels to express interest in a number of possible candidates to take up the remaining open roster spots as they try to increase the depth of their front court.
