UNC basketball sophomore ranked among Top 10 in his class

Date:

The college basketball season is upon us and UNC basketball is just three weeks away from its season-opening game at the Smith Center against Elon on November 4th. UNC has a lot of promise heading into this year led by two stellar returning starters.

Fifth-year senior RJ Davis and sophomore point guard Elliot Cadeau are the two returning starters.

Davis was recently awarded a preseason All-American First-Team prediction from CBS Sports, and now Elliot Cadeau joins him ending up on Andy Katz’s list of the top 10 sophomores for the 2024-2025 basketball season.

In his freshman season with the Tar Heels last year, Cadeau averaged 7.3 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game. He was also a member of the 2023-2024 ACC All-Freshman team.

He ended the season third in the ACC in assists with 150 despite only starting about three-fourths of the games for the Heels after working his way into the starting lineup.

Cadeau is poised to make a huge sophomore leap this season and with the addition of stretch players like Cade Tyson and the improvement of Cadeau’s outside shooting per Hubert Davis, he could go from being someone that the team leaves open to a real threat shooting and facilitating the basketball.

Time will tell how Cadeau progresses this season, but being a part of this list from Katz proves that there are people out there noticing it too.
