April 23, 2019 | Men's Basketball
MVP of McDonald's and Jordan All-Star Games
Cole Anthony, a 6-3 guard from New York, N.Y., has signed a National Letter of Intent to attend the University of North Carolina and play basketball for the Tar Heels.
Â
Anthony attends Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Va., where he plays for head coach Steve Smith. Anthony previously attended Archbishop Molloy High School in New York.
Â
"We're thrilled with Cole's decision to attend North Carolina," says UNC head coach Roy Williams. "He is one of the most complete point guards I have ever recruited. He has all the physical skills, but he has a competitiveness, a toughness and a savvy that I really like. I first saw him as a ninth-grader and since then he has gotten better and better and I know he will continue to improve. He comes from a great family. His parents (Greg Anthony and Crystal McCrary-McGuire) are very involved in his life and are fantastic people. We couldn't be happier that Cole and his family are joining our Carolina Basketball family."
Â
Anthony earned Most Valuable Players honors at the 2019 McDonald's All-America Game (14 points, five rebounds, seven assists) and the Jordan Brand Classic (25/6/6), and led Team USA with 25 points and eight rebounds in a 93-87 win over Team World in the Nike Hoop Summit in Portland, Ore.
