The UNC basketball program gets its 2022-23 season ‘tipped’ off on Friday with “Live Action with Carolina Basketball” — previously known as “Late Night”.
It’s a huge recruiting event for the Tar Heels and has been a night that has played host to numerous high-profile prospects, including what are now 45 McDonald’s All-Americans.
The Tar Heels will be hosting two key visitors this weekend for official visits, one in the 2023 class and another in the 2024 class.
Moving forward, there are five 2023 or 2024 prospects with scheduled official visits — all top priority targets for the UNC basketball program.
Here is a full breakdown of the key visitors who are already scheduled to be on campus over the next month.

UNC gets its visits kicked off with the most important visitor of the fall in four-star 2023 forward Zayden High. He will be on campus for his senior year official visit September 30 to October 2.
High is ranked the No. 48 player in the 247Sports composite rankings and the No. 9 overall power forward in the class.
He has taken two official visits, to Michigan and Villanova, up to this point.
UNC was originally involved with High before the commitment of GG Jackson, but after landing his pledge, the Tar Heels backed off. After Jackson backed off his commitment, UNC turned its attention back to High.
Despite the flip-flop of priority on High, the Tar Heels still have a very good chance of landing the four-star forward.
This is the most important visit of the recruiting cycle as it stands right now for North Carolina.
Boogie Fland – Sept. 30
Archbishop Stepinac’s Boogie Fland drives to the net under pressure from Cardinal Hayes’ Tobe Awaka during the CHSAA AA Intersectional final at Hofstra University March 11, 2022. Hayes won 79-59.
