Just In: Take a look at the new player Hubert Davis added to the team.

The Tar Heel transfer was a coveted three-point shooter in the transfer portal.

Cade Tyson officially signed with North Carolina last week and arrived in Chapel Hill on Tuesday, Inside Carolina confirmed. The 6-foot-7 forward from Belmont will begin classes on Wednesday. He is rated as the No. 38 overall prospect and No. 9 small forward in the portal by 247Sports and is the Tar Heels’ lone transfer addition so far this offseason.

“I’m ready to be a Tar Heel,” Tyson told Inside Carolina. “I’m excited. [UNC was] definitely one of the calls I was waiting on. It’s my home state. It’s in the ACC. I always grew up watching them. I wouldn’t say I was a super Carolina fan growing up, but I definitely am now. [Coach Davis] made me feel wanted. He talked me through what Carolina is all about, what they’re going to have on the roster next year, and what kind of role they want me to take on.”

Tyson averaged 16.2 points and 5.9 rebounds as a sophomore this past season. He shot 49.3 percent from the field and 46.5 percent from the three-point line, which ranked No. 2 nationally by the NCAA. 247Sports national basketball analyst Isaac Trotter tabbed Tyson and UNC as one of the best fits in the transfer portal.

“Tyson will make the Tar Heels better, but he isn’t the Harrison Ingram replacement,” Trotter wrote. “He’s much more the Cormac Ryan replacement. Many of Carolina’s guards — Ian Jackson, Seth Trimble and Elliot Cadeau — have shooting questions. That’s why Tyson is such a big addition. he’s more than just a floor-spacing secondary weapon. Tyson’s pull-up jumper is an effective part of his arsenal, and he can get to the rim well with curls off pindowns or attacking long closeouts. He doesn’t need the ball in his hands to be effective, but when it happens, he makes decisive moves.”

Belmont’s defense ranked No. 130 in the nation last season, but Tyson’s defensive tape showed flashes. He hounded Drake star Tucker DeVries in both matchups. Belmont mixed zone and man, but Tyson’s one-on-one defense on DeVries was rock solid, according to Trotter.
