University of North Carolina forward Kennedy Meeks participated in the non-contact portion of the Tar Heels’ 90-minute practice Tuesday, the team said in a news release. Head coach Roy Williams says whether Meeks is available for tomorrow’s practice will depend on how much swelling there is and how much discomfort Meeks has following Tuesday’s workout.

Meeks suffered a sprained left knee in the final minutes of UNC’s win over Arkansas on March 21.
