North Carolina freshman Caleb Wilson will miss the remainder of the season due to a fractured right thumb sustained while dunking in practice, with surgery already completed. Despite this setback, he is projected as a potential top-5 pick in the June NBA draft, following the expected top-3 picks. Wilson, who previously missed six games with a fractured left hand, averaged 19.8 points and 9.4 rebounds this season. The Tar Heels, currently 24-6 overall, are set to face No. 1 Duke in their regular-season finale.
