Read MoreFifth-year senior forward Will Graves has been dismissed from the men’s basketball team for failure to comply with team rules, head coach Roy Williams ’72 announced Thursday.
“This is 100 percent not related to any NCAA matters on campus,” Williams said. “I hate this for Will. He worked extremely hard this summer to get himself physically in the best shape he’s been in years, but he did not do everything he needed to do to be a part of our basketball program. This is a huge blow to our team, but an even bigger blow for Will. Playing for the Tar Heels meant so much to him.”
Graves red-shirted in 2006-07 then played in 92 games over the past three seasons. He scored 513 points at UNC, including 353 last year, when he averaged 9.8 points per game and was the Tar Heels’ third-leading scorer.
The Greensboro native made seven three-pointers and scored a career-high 25 points in the 2010 NIT championship game against Dayton.
