Dylan Mingo, the best available guard in the senior class, decommitted after meeting with new coach Michael Malone and will consider other schools.

  • On Monday, five-star guard Dylan Mingo decommitted from North Carolina, reopening his recruitment and becoming the best available guard in the senior class.
