Bio

Major: Business Management

Julian Bunton appreciates the welcoming atmosphere and campus at Union Commonwealth University. He dreams of working in basketball operations while managing real estate. 

Outside of basketball, Julian enjoys cooking, hanging out with friends, watching movies, listening to music, and traveling. His favorite subject in high school was history. He looks up to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and LeBron James. Sweet tea and blue Powerade are his favorite drinks, and Sour Sweet Tart mini chews are his go-to road trip snack. Wings and BBQ are his favorite meals.

Julian has a dog and is known as an uplifting leader on his team. He hopes to be remembered for his character both on and off the court and the positive impact he has on others. His second-best sport is football.
