The transfer portal is going to be a very important one for the North Carolina Tar Heels as they face a critical offseason trying to replace some key losses. With RJ Davis and Jae'Lyn Withers exhausting eligibility and Elliot Cadeau and Jalen Washington both entering the transfer portal, the list of needs grew.

Now, as the dead period approaches, the Tar Heels are set to host a key transfer portal target this week.

Per Joe Tipton, West Virginia guard Jonathan Powell will meet with North Carolina via Zoom on Tuesday. He will then meet with Ole Miss via Zoom on Wednesday.

As Topton notes, Powell just completed an official visit to Ohio State on Tuesday as well.

The 6-foot-6 shooting guard will be a sophomore this year and is coming off a freshman season in which he averaged 8.3 points and 3.1 assists per game. He shot 37.8 percent from the field and 35.2 percent from the three-point line.

He appeared in 32 games and made 23 starts for the Mountaineers.

The Tar Heels have already hosted one guard already and are showing some interest in other players but they have yet to secure a commitment out of the portal yet.
