NC State has 3 good players. Unsurprisingly, 2 are oldhead transfers, which continues the theme of the season. All 3 are perimeter players, so this will be a clash of Duke’s big ball versus Keatts’ guard-dominated PnR-heavy (I assume) offense. This would be the most unexpected win of the season to date, IMO.
Terquavion Smith, SO, 6-1, #99 247composite
Offense runs through him, for better or for worse. 29% usage but only 107 efficiency. Assist rate is way up from last season but shooting has not improved. Still somewhat of a chucker.
Jarkel Joiner, 6th year SR, 6-1
Transfer from Ole Miss, after Cal State Bakersfield. Very strong track record of great FT shooting and low turnovers but limited by mediocre 3pt shooting. Getting to the FT line at a good clip this season.
Casey Morsell, 4th year SR, 6-3
Transfer from Virginia. Breakout season as a shooter. 48% 3PT, 86% FT. That’s essentially his entire role in the offense.
