North Carolina reserve center Ivan Matlekovic has entered the transfer portal, becoming the latest Tar Heel to seek a move, Inside Carolina reported Wednesday.
The 7-footer from Sisak, Croatia, spent his only season at UNC in a limited role, appearing in four games and logging seven total minutes before a hand injury ended his season in January. He scored his only points of the year on a basket in the Tar Heels’ 99-51 win over East Carolina on Dec. 22.
Matlekovic transferred to North Carolina after his freshman season at High Point, where he appeared in five games. Before coming to the United States, he played two seasons for HAKK Mladost Zagreb in Croatia’s Prva Liga.
