North Carolina’s RJ Davis, the 2023–24 ACC Player of the Year, will return for a fifth and final season with the Tar Heels, CBS Sports Matt Norlander reported on Tuesday. An official announcement from Davis has not been made yet.

This news came shortly after it was reported that UNC guard Seth Trimble was withdrawing from the transfer portal to remain with the Tar Heels for another season. Guard Elliot Cadeau is also expected to stay as well, Norlander added. UNC will introduce five-star recruit Ian Jackson to the backcourt in 2024 as well.
