Hands out season-high 13 assists Cadeau provided 14 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, 13 assists and two steals across 38 minutes during Tuesday's 67-66 loss to Wake Forest.

Impact Cadeau has been one of the best passers in the ACC this season, and he continues to put up elite numbers in the majority of the passing categories. The 13 dimes were a season-high mark for him, and the sophomore floor general is averaging 9.4 points, 3.0 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game since the beginning of January.

Hands out six dimes Cadeau logged 10 points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound and six assists in 32 minutes during Saturday's 74-73 win over Notre Dame.

Impact Cadeau continues to show why he's considered one of the best point guards in the ACC, and he has a run of solid performances to back that up. The sophomore floor general has dished out five or more assists in six games in a row, averaging 8.2 points, 7.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 0.3 steals per game in that span.

Hands out 12 dimes Sunday Cadeau recorded 12 points (6-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, 12 assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Sunday's 97-81 win over Campbell.

Impact The Tar Heels had to work harder than expected to get the win Sunday, but Cadeau played a prominent role in the victory due to his 12 assists. The floor general, one of the most consistent players for UNC this season, posted a new season-high mark in dimes in 2024-25 while notching his first double-double of the campaign.

Excels as playmaker in loss Cadeau ended with 11 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound, seven assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 90-84 loss to Florida.

Impact The Tar Heels have been struggling badly this season, but Cadeau delivered a solid line, as he left his mark both as a scorer and playmaker. Firmly entrenched as the Tar Heels' starting point guard and playing alongside RJ Davis in the backcourt, Cadeau is averaging a solid line of 11.5 points, 5.7 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game. He's handed out at least seven assists in five of his 11 contests.

Comes close to double-double Cadeau had 18 points (6-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-9 FT), three rebounds, eight assists and four steals over 29 minutes during Friday's 107-55 win over American University.

Impact Cadeau has been thriving both as a scorer and playmaker in the first two weeks of the regular season, and he finished just two dimes away from recording a double-double. Cadeau has taken a gigantic leap forward in his game this season and has posted at least 12 points and at least seven dimes in each of his three appearances.

Hands out eight assists Monday Cadeau had 17 points (4-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 6-8 FT), four rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and three steals over 32 minutes during Monday's 90-76 win over Elon.

Impact As expected, RJ Davis was the leading scorer for the Tar Heels, but Cadeau was excellent as a playmaker -- he finished just two assists shy of a double-double. Davis should command most of the attention on offense, but Cadeau should thrive in a facilitating role for UNC as long as he stays healthy.

NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

13 assists in exhibition game Cadeau dished out 13 assists to go along with 11 points (4-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-4 FT) and four rebounds in Tuesday's exhibition game win over Memphis.

Impact Cadeau had the ball in his hands more on Tuesday with RJ Davis out with a back injury. The sophomore showed why he is one of the best ball distributors in the ACC. He showed a good connection with Seth Trimble, who started in place of Davis and went off for 33 points. Cadeau also hit two three pointers, which is something coach Hubert Davis desperately needs to create more spacing in the offense. Last season many teams played so far off Cadeau because he only shot 19 percent from three-point range and stacked the paint. UNC opens the regular season on Nov. 4 against Elon.
