CHAPEL HILL – UNC basketball guard Cormac Ryan was injured in the final seconds of the Tar Heels’ 83-81 overtime loss to Villanova on Thursday in the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament.

After attempting to intentionally miss a free throw, Ryan appeared to roll both ankles as he jumped to grab the rebound. He was helped off the court by his teammates.

According to Inside Carolina, UNC coach Hubert Davis didn’t have an update on Ryan’s status in the immediate aftermath of the game.

“I didn’t see how he twisted his ankle, but obviously he was in a lot of pain,” Davis told reporters. “But he’s walking around in the locker room. But I don’t have a definitive update on his availability (Friday) and how he feels right now.”

Ryan, who finished with a season-high 18 points against the Wildcats (5-1), previously injured his ankle in UNC’s exhibition game against Saint Augustine’s. He is averaging 10.8 points through five games. According to Inside Carolina, Ryan was not in uniform for warmups ahead of UNC’s game against Arkansas.

The Notre Dame transfer was a team captain in each of the last three seasons with the Fighting Irish. Ryan scored 1,173 points and made 212 three-pointers in 116 games over four seasons. He is one of seven newcomers for the Tar Heels, who added five players from the transfer portal and two freshmen to the new-look roster.
