"He's a clown": UNC legend Raymond Felton calls out former teammate Rashad McCants over Roy Williams comments

North Carolina legend Raymond Felton called out former teammate Rashad McCants over his comments to former Tar Heels coach and three-time national champion Roy Williams.

Felton, who played for three seasons with North Carolina and won a national championship in 2005, described McCants as a "clown" for apparently being bitter at the legendary coach for not sitting with him in the green room during the draft.

"He's a clown. He's a f*** boy," Felton said on the "To The Baha" podcast he hosts with Theo Pinson, Tyler Relph, and Kameron Wilkerson. (Timestamp 10:08) "And to all these talking on Twitter, talking about seeing somebody, seeing all that, come see me. Yeah, come see me. I want all of it, all the smoke, wherever, whenever."

"You talk about our coach who was doing nothing but being great to us, and you win lottery," Felton added (Timestamp 10:52). "You a lottery complainer, so it's Coach Williams' fault that you didn't play that long in the league. That's his fault too, right? That's your fault."

Rashad McCants, who played for four seasons with Minnesota and Sacramento in the NBA, claimed he was offended by Williams' decision not to sit at his table to support him in the 2005 NBA draft. McCants added that the three-time champion coach sat with Sean May, Raymond Felton and Marvin Williams during that time.

"I told you Coach Williams, I said he was going to walk to the green room. So he's there because it's four of us now, it's not just me, it's me, Sean, Raymond and Marvin. So all of us are there. And he sat at everybody's table, but mine," McCants said (Timestamp 8:24).

Roy Williams went on to win two more national titles with North Carolina in 2009 and 2017 before retiring in 2021. He was inducted into the College Basketball Hall of Fame in 2006 and the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2007.
