5-star point guard Boogie Fland set to visit UNC

White Plains (N.Y.) Archbishop Stepinac five-star recruit Boogie Fland will officially visit North Carolina on September 30th, his coach tells On3’s Jamie Shaw.

The Tar Heels will be the 6-foot-3 class of 2024 point guard’s first official visit. UConn hosted him for an unofficial visit in June. Fland also holds scholarship offers from Kentucky, Villanova, Oregon, Illinois, Michigan, Auburn, Kansas, and others.

Fland is the No. 6 overall prospect in the 2024 On3 Consensus, the average ranking from all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 1 overall point guard in the class.

Earlier this week, North Carolina head coach Hubert Davis was in to see Fland, as was Oregon’s Dana Altman, Villanova’s Kyle Neptune, UConn’s Danny Hurley, and Seton Hall’s Shaheen Holloway. Assistants from Kansas, Louisville, St. John’s and California were also in to see him.

In December of 2021, Fland signed a Name, Image, Likeness deal with social media company Spreadshop. This deal has given Fland the freedom to build his own personal brand on the organization’s platform. The New York Post reported Fland would receive four figures per month for the next six months in exchange for one social media post per week in which he identifies himself as a Spreadshop athlete.

Scouting Summary

Boogie Fland plays with a New York flair. He has a good handle and is able to shoot the ball from each level. He has deep range off the bounce and will pull up if you give him an inch. Fland sees the floor well but seems to be most confident when he is looking for his shot first. There is a floater game in there as well, with a one and two dribble pull-up. He will need to continue getting stronger and he is a solid athlete and has average length. The confidence is sky-high and the skill set is obvious. He missed a lot of his sophomore season with injury. – On3’s Jamie Shaw, National Recruiting Analyst
