Tom Dundon buys Trail Blazers: Impact on Carolina Hurricanes & NC MLB | Why UNC lacks preseason hype

With Giglio out, Lauren Brownlow joins Joe Ovies to kick things off with a little non-sports TV talk before football takes over. The conversation shifts to the Carolina Panthers’ preseason, including why the CJ Stroud vs. Bryce Young debate has fizzled after Stroud’s sophomore slump. N&O columnist Luke DeCock stops by to break down Carolina Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon buying the NBA’s Portland Trail Blazers — why he chose Portland over the Charlotte Hornets, what it means for the Canes, and how it boosts his push for an MLB team in North Carolina. Later, Tar Heel 24/7’s Andrew Jones explains why UNC isn’t getting preseason buzz despite having Bill Belichick as head coach, and why their opener vs. TCU could be pivotal for both the team and the fan base.
