Going into the basketball offseason, Tar Heels Wire will be looking at each scholarship player listed on the Tar Heels’ roster.
Over the offseason, each profile will cover where the player is from, how recruiting websites rated them coming out of high school, and how they performed for head coach Hubert Davis and the team. First up is Anthony Harris.
[autotag]Anthony Harris[/autotag] committed to North Carolina back in April of 2019 after backing out of signing with Virginia Tech. The four-star guard was a Top 100 player nationally and gave UNC some depth at the guard spot. However, he battled injuries that limited his time on the court. This year, Harris started the season off healthy but was ruled out for the year for an undisclosed reason.

Year in Review
Harris entered this season healthy after battling multiple injuries in his career that forced him to miss games. He was supposed to be the primary backup guard to R.J. Davis and Caleb Love, spelling them off the bench and providing a solid option for the Tar Heels.
And while things got off to a good start, Harris would only play in 14 total games while averaging 11.7 minutes.
Back in January of 2022, the team announced that Harris was unavailable for the rest of the season but could practice and travel with the team. Head coach Hubert Davis had nothing but positive things to say about Harris and did not reveal the reason why he was no longer able to play.
Harris entered his name into the transfer portal shortly after the 2021-22 season ended.
