5. Tony Bradley to return vs. Boston College

Freshman forward Tony Bradley has missed the last two games for the North Carolina Tar Heels due to a concussion. However, UNC’s best rebounder off the bench is set to return on Saturday versus Boston College.

North Carolina's Tony Bradley (concussion) is expected to play Saturday at Boston College, per a school spokesman.

Bradley is not a necessary piece that the Tar Heels need to have in order to win tomorrow’s game versus Boston College, but it is good news that he is finally returning to the lineup.

Even though Luke Maye did a solid job in Bradley’s absence (15 rebounds versus Florida State), the freshman big gives the Tar Heels a different dimension. He runs the floor well, is averaging just over eight points a game and is grabbing 5.7 rebounds per night. He is also blocking 0.7 shots per game.

Boston College doesn’t have the front court prowess to challenge Kennedy Meeks and Isaiah Hicks alone, so getting Bradley back on Saturday will just be a bonus. He can work back into game form in anticipation for North Carolina’s home game against Virginia Tech next week.
