It is that time of year again when UNC fans can witness former Tar Heels help their NBA teams battle it out for a chance at being crowned champions.
Throughout the years, many former Tar Heels have shined come playoff time, adding to their already-established careers by introducing an NBA championship to their collection. Of course, Michael Jordan leads all former Tar Heels with six rings in as many tries, but you must remember Mitch Kupchak, James Worthy, Rick Fox, Danny Green, and Harrison Barnes, to name a few.
This year is no different, as a few former Heels have a chance to join former UNC players to win an NBA championship. Not only will they get what is regarded as the biggest prize on the professional basketball level, but they will also help widen the gap between North Carolina players to win a ring(18) versus Duke (6).
If you need a reminder of which Tar Heels are left to cheer for this NBA playoffs, we got you covered.
