The college basketball transfer portal is heating up, and a key piece from Chapel Hill is now on the move. North Carolina junior guard Kyan Evans has officially entered the portal, seeking his third program in four seasons and marking another shift for a Tar Heels program in transition.
In his lone season with UNC, Evans served as a rotational guard, averaging 4.0 points and 2.5 assists across 33 games. His standout performance came in a December victory over Florida State, where he dropped a season-high 15 points, showcasing the potential that made him a top-100 transfer a year ago.
Evans began his collegiate career at Colorado State, where he was a consistent contributor over two seasons before making the jump to the ACC. His decision to transfer again comes as North Carolina basketball turns the page, following the departure of head coach Hubert Davis after the team's second consecutive first-round NCAA Tournament exit.
The Tar Heels' stunning overtime loss to VCU, after leading by 19 points, ultimately sealed the coaching change. Evans played just four minutes in that final game, and now he'll look for a fresh start elsewhere. His next destination will add a new chapter for a guard with valuable experience at both the mid-major and high-major levels.
