Caleb Wilson is UNC’s high-upside freshman force: efficient, disruptive, and already stuffing the stat sheet
In the 2025-26 season, Caleb Wilson emerged as a high-impact freshman for North Carolina, averaging 19.8 points, 9.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.5 steals, and 1.4 blocks while shooting 57.8% from the field[1][5]. His calling card is two-way versatility: he scores efficiently inside, finishes through contact, rebounds like a bigger forward, and brings real defensive playmaking with active hands and rim protection[14]. At 6-foot-10, he pairs a strong motor with rim pressure and passing feel, making him a fit for teams that want a forward who can impact winning without needing the offense built entirely around him[8][11].
