Kenny “The Jet” Smith Visits UNC Men’s Basketball

In my opinion, the shot of Smith talking to the entire roster is the best viewpoint, engaging with all members of the roster sitting along the sidelines. And the opportunity for the guards (Kyan Evans, Seth Trimble, Luka Bogavac, Jaydon Young, Jonathan Powell) to receive wisdom on top of their years in the college game.

Especially the freshman, Derek Dixon, and Isaiah Denis, who are stepping into the spotlight that UNC basketball has to offer.

This roster composition would be one that Smith may have thrived in if he were a player in this day and age. A team that has versatility at each position, height, length, and plenty of shooters — his assist total would be more than just six per game (hard to imagine otherwise).

Smith is a someone who played under Coach Smith, a bright mind in the basketball world, well-respected, and planted an identity in UNC basketball.

From the scrimmages that feature previous Tar Heels each summer to small gestures of talking to the team during practice, UNC exudes its brand of "Carolina Family." It is an important aspect that draws potential recruits to the program and aids the camaraderie.

Maybe in a few months, players will be sharing information with journalists in the locker room about Smith's appearance in Chapel Hill, acknowledging how his insight into the game helped their performance on the parquet (the Roy Williams court).

It's the little things that build up and create success, this may ultimately be just that.
