MEN’S BASKETBALL
NORTH CAROLINA: Forward Armando Bacot is returning to play a fifth season for the Tar Heels.
The 6-foot-11 Bacot is North Carolina’s career leader in rebounds, double-doubles and double-figure rebounding games.
Bacot led North Carolina to a runner-up finish in last year’s NCAA Tournament, and his decision to return was a major reason the Tar Heels were ranked No. 1 in the preseason Associated Press Top 25.
The Tar Heels didn’t come close to meeting those expectations. They went 20-13 and opted against playing in the NIT. Bacot averaged 15.9 points and 10.4 rebounds and earned Associated Press All-America third-team honors.
