UNC Men’s Basketball 2025-2026 | Seth broken arm

Huge loss. His ability as a shut down defender is a rarity. Get well soon, Seth.

Fuck!

Steady hand but hopefully the young bloods will step up for him! You can tell he’s the quiet leader of this squad.

The only positive is that all but 3 of those games we should still win even without Seth. The Michigan State, UK, and Georgetown games will all be tough to win without him, but doable. Hopefully he won't be out any longer than that.

The biggest problem I see with this injury is reintegrating Seth in January after Luka has locked down the shooting guard role. If we are rolling with the big lineup, which has shooting and length, I’m worried that Seth coming back in January is going to mess up the chemistry and take a while for everyone to get acclimated to the new roles.

The only silver lining is this is the position we have the most quality depth with the least drop off. Lose defense and gain outside shooting. It was nice being able to bring someone like Luka off the bench but he’s certainly capable of taking over the starting role.

The chemistry question is a good one, but if we’re rolling that’s a decent problem to have. Would allow us to integrate him back into the lineup slowly. The later he comes back the harder it would be though.

A crappy day just got crappier with this news. Hope he can come back by ACC play.

Don't sleep on Jonathan Powell...not that he is going to move into the starting lineup but he has had impressive (from what I heard) play in practice and scrimmages, especially as a defender.
