[2] North Carolina's six NCAA Tournament Championships are third-most all-time, behind UCLA and Kentucky. They have also won 18 Atlantic Coast Conference tournament titles,[3] 31 Atlantic Coast Conference regular season titles,[4] and an Atlantic Coast Conference record 20 outright Regular Season Championships.[4] The program has produced many notable players who went on to play in the NBA, including three of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History: Billy Cunningham, Michael Jordan and James Worthy. Many Tar Heel assistant coaches have gone on to become head coaches elsewhere.[5]

Carolina–Duke rivalry Much like the Alabama-Auburn football rivalry, the North Carolinaâ€“Duke rivalry is all the more intense because the two schools have consistently been among the nation's elite men's basketball teams for most of the last 30 years. Both schools are also two of the most victorious programs in NCAA men's basketball history; North Carolina is #3 on the list of all-time winningest programs in Division I Men's Basketball and Duke is #4.[4][5][6][7] Duke has won five NCAA championships and has appeared in sixteen Final Fours, while North Carolina has won six NCAA championships and appeared in a record twenty Final Fours.[5][8] Additionally, North Carolina was also retroactively awarded a national championship by the Helms Athletic Foundation in 1942 for their undefeated 1924 season.
