Seth Trimble is the Barometer for UNC Basketball

For UNC Basketball to make any type of deep run, whether it be in the ACC Tournament or the NCAA Tournament, they can’t just rely on Caleb Wilson and Henri Veesaar.

For a good portion of non-conference play, North Carolina's trio of Seth Trimble, Caleb Wilson, and Henri Veesaar have missed a combined 15 games, but a 22-6 record is pretty good to show for those ailments.
