Hubert Davis and the North Carolina Tar Heels are adding another piece to the puzzle that is their 2025-26 roster.
After losing Elliot Cadeau to the transfer portal, the Tar Heels really needed to find a point guard to run the offense for next season. They targeted a few. And now on Wednesday, they have their commitment.
Colorado State point guard Kyan Evans picked the Tar Heels, pledging his commitment to the program . Evans picked UNC while having interest from other programs as well. The Kansas City, Missouri native had a breakout season for the Rams a year ago, earning Honorable Mention All-Mountain West honors.
He helped lead Colorado State to a Mountain West Tournament Championship and a win in the NCAA Tournament while averaging 10.6 points and 3.1 assists per game.
Evans is a big get for the Tar Heels not only due to his ability to run the offense but his three-point shooting as well as he was 24th nationally in three-point percentage at 44.6 percent last season. That's something UNC struggled with as a team.
The commitment is the third out of the portal for UNC as he joins forward Jonathan Powell and center Henri Veesaar who pledged their commitments earlier.
