Week three of the 2020-21 NBA season is in the books. Each Monday during the NBA season, AllTarHeels will review the prior week for the Tar Heels in the NBA and preview the week ahead. This week, we are looking at games from January 4-10 and looking ahead to games from January 11-17.
There are currently 12 Tar Heels on NBA rosters, either full time or on a two-way contract.
Nassir Little (Portland Trail Blazers) was finally able to get on the court, after recovering from COVID-19. He played limited minutes in two games this week and will continue to play more minutes as he gets back into game shape.
Coby White went off against the Kings last Wednesday, scoring a career high 36 points. He shot an efficient 15-for-23 from the field, including 4-for-9 from three. In the previous game, White recorded his first career points and rebounds double-double against the Trail Blazers (he had a points and assists double-double on New Year’s Eve), finishing with 21 points and 10 rebounds.
Three different Tar Heels are playing for first place teams. The 76ers (Danny Green and Tony Bradley) are tied atop the Eastern Conference standings with the Celtics (7-3). Meanwhile, the Suns (Cameron Johnson) have continued their high level of play from the bubble and are tied for first in the Western Conference with the Lakers (7-3).
Here’s a brief look at each Tar Heel in the NBA, what he did in the previous week of games, and a preview of the week ahead.
Note: all times listed are Eastern.
