Two UNC basketball guards highlight their one personal goal this season

Two UNC basketball guards set one personal goal each for the upcoming season.

North Carolina basketball is at the ACC Tipoff media event presented by T. Rowe Price today and the crew analysts start the program with a conversation bringing to the set North Carolina guards, RJ Davis and Seth Trimble.

At the end of their conversation, the two guards for the Tar Heels were asked if they had one overall goal for the upcoming season.

Seth Trimble’s personal goal for himself this year is to win the ACC Defensive Player of the Year award.

“I know I’m capable of it,” Trimble said during the interview. “I guard the best players in the country each and every day.”

When it comes to Trimble’s role on the team, he discussed earlier in the broadcast his desire to be a better off-ball shooter and shooter in general. However, something he has always highlighted has been his defensive prowess. The Heels are definitely going to need that in the upcoming season.

For RJ Davis, his personal goal was to mold into a better leader.

“I think this will be a big step for me beyond basketball and beyond North Carolina that I can take to life with,” Davis said.

For North Carolina, Davis has been a leader over the years, but in his eyes, he desires to take that skill to a new level. Davis, the fifth-year senior, will be the oldest on the court for the team and the veteran that Hubert Davis can rely on.

His impact on the freshman and underclassmen could led to decades of talented Carolina basketball.
