The Class of 2025 has been a rough one for recruiting in the eyes of Hubert Davis. Over the past couple of months, they have lost a handful of recruits and several of them to blue-blood rivals like Kentucky.
On top of actually losing recruits, several have shifted their desires and predictions. However, UNC is still in the running for the top overall player of the year in AJ Dybantsa who was just at Chapel Hill.
Hubert Davis also just boosted his presence by getting his first recruit of the class Derek Dixon on Friday. The combo guard from Washington, D.C., is the No. 51 overall player in the class as a four-star recruit with a 247 composite of .9782.
The 6-foot-4, Gonzaga High School basketball star has been dominating this season. According to Adam Finkelstein, “He thinks and understands the game at a high level and is both efficient and versatile with the ball in his hands. He’s a very good three-point shooter, with a compact release, and yet good loft and rotation”

Dixon will be an excellent addition to the UNC family and it also puts UNC on the map for other recruits who may have had hesitations due to the Heels’s lack of commitments to this date.
