Puff Johnson - Plays 14 minutes Johnson (ankle) chipped in two points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one rebound over 14 minutes during Wednesday's 85-61 victory over Boston College.
Impact There seemed to be no problems with Johnson's previously injured ankle as the Tar Heels defeated Boston College during their second-round game of the 2023 ACC Tournament. Just like he was during the 2022-23 Tar Heels' regular season, he is expected to be a substitute option who logs fringe minutes whenever Pete Nance or Armando Bacot need some rest.

From inconsistent Michigan to fading Providence, Andy Katz breaks down teams that need to show well in their conference tournaments.MARCH 6, 2023
Armando Bacot - Double-doubles before ACC Tourney Bacot finished Saturday's 62-57 loss to Duke with 17 points (4-8 FG, 9-10 FT), 11 rebounds, four blocks and one steal over 30 minutes.
Impact Bacot has been one of the best players in the ACC this season and couldn't have ended the regular season differently, as he posted his 19th double-double of the season across 30 contests. He will lead the Tar Heels in the ACC Tournament as a two-way threat that averaged 16.5 points and 10.8 rebounds per game in the regular season.

Justin McKoy - Plays two minutes McKoy played two minutes during Saturday's 62-57 loss to Duke.
Impact Even with a part in North Carolina's starting lineup, McKoy failed to log more than the bare minimum of multiple minutes. Across the 2022-23 Tar Heels' regular season, his minute average was only 5.7 across 10 games. Thus, McKoy is not expected to be part of their rotation when the Tar Heels participate in tournament action later this March.
MARCH 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jackson Watkins - Plays one minute Watkins posted no counting stats in one minute during Saturday's 62-57 loss to Duke.
Impact Even with a part in North Carolina's starting lineup, Watkins failed to log multiple minutes. Across the 2022-23 Tar Heels' regular season, his minute tally was only three. Thus, Watkins is not expected to be part of their rotation when the Tar Heels participate in tournament action later this March.

Puff Johnson - Possibly limited Saturday Johnson closed with zero points (0-1 FG) and two rebounds in 12 minutes during Saturday's 62-57 loss to Duke.
Impact There is a chance Johnson was limited by an ankle injury he suffered earlier during the game. He returned after the scare but will have his availability probable before North Carolina's next matchup, which will be against either Louisville or Boston College on Wednesday.
