Taliyah Henderson brings five-star length, efficiency, and upside to UNC
In the 2025-26 season, Taliyah Henderson flashed real freshman value at North Carolina as a 6-foot-1 guard who was efficient around the rim and versatile enough to impact both ends, but her role fluctuated as the year went on; she averaged 3.7 points and 2.0 rebounds in 33 games, with a strong 56.8% shooting mark and a season-high 13 points three times. Rated a five-star recruit and No. 27 in her class, she stood out for athleticism, shooting touch, and length—plus the kind of two-way upside that makes coaches lean in. A good fit if you want ceiling, not just box-score flash.
