2027 5-star Nasir Anderson moves up official visit to UNC
Top recruit Nasir Anderson is moving up his official visit to UNC after canceling a trip to Southern Cal.
The 2027 point guard prospect Nasir Anderson will be making an early visit to Carolina. The Ft. Lauderdale (Fla.) Prolific Prep player is scheduled to embark on an official visit to the University of North Carolina on Wednesday, Sept. 23, according to a report by Sherrell McMillan of Inside Carolina on Tuesday. Anderson's visit came after he canceled his planned trip to Southern California this week.
He and his family worked with associate head coach Chuck Martin to accelerate the trip to the Tar Heels. Anderson is projected as a top-10 recruit and the No. 4 point guard in the nation. This visit marks him as the second class of 2027 lead guard to tour Carolina this fall, following top-ranked lead guard Beckham Black. Standing at 6-foot-4, Anderson had hip surgery in June, which temporarily halted his summer and AAU activities.
However, he is anticipated to be fully recovered and ready for the upcoming season. Before switching to Prolific Prep last year, Anderson played two seasons at Norcross (Ga.) High School. Carolina's recruiting coordinator Michael Malone visited the institution on Sept. 10 to assess Anderson alongside 2027 UNC prospect Lewis Uwvo, returning for another visit on Sept.
17. In August, Anderson revealed his top 10 list, which included Kentucky, Georgia, Indiana, North Carolina, Providence, Syracuse, Tennessee, Virginia, UConn, and USC. He has already completed official visits to Providence and Virginia, with trips to Tennessee, Kentucky, and Georgia lined up for October.
