Maria Gakdeng showing she’ll be a huge force inside for UNC Women's Basketball

Posted Dec 6, 2023
With every game, junior transfer Maria Gakdeng has a more significant impact for No. 24 North Carolina with her size, inside moves, defense and clutch free-throw shooting. Just ask 6-foot-7 Kamilla Cardoso, the center for No. 1 South Carolina who scored only six points in their 65-58 victory in Chapel Hill, thanks to the tenacity of the 6-foot-3 Gakdeng.
