UNC star freshman forward Caleb Wilson suffered a sprained left wrist in Tuesday night’s 75-66 loss at Miami. The News & Observer’s Shelby Swanson first reported the news, and it was later confirmed to Chapelboro by a program spokesman.
Wilson’s 12 points in the loss were a season low, and he finished the game with a team-worst -15 plus-minus rating in 26 minutes, meaning the Hurricanes outscored the Tar Heels by 15 points with Wilson on the floor. He exited the game during the second half and left the bench briefly, then returned to the game with a wrap on his left wrist.
When asked about Wilson’s injury after the game, head coach Hubert Davis declined to specify or even acknowledge it had occurred.
“There’s no situation,” Davis said.
Wilson’s status for UNC’s upcoming game against Pittsburgh Saturday in Chapel Hill is unknown. Each ACC school is required to submit an injury report the night before the game and two hours before tip-off for conference matchups, a new policy for the 2025-26 season.
Wilson currently leads UNC in scoring (19.8 points per game), rebounding (9.4 rebounds per game), blocks (1.4 per game) and steals (1.1 per game). He has been named to the midseason watch lists for both the Karl Malone Award (given to the nation’s top power forward) and the Wooden Award (given to the national player of the year) and is the reigning ACC Freshman of the Week and National Player of the Week.
