Quadir Copeland - Leads team to rivalry win Copeland racked up 20 points (7-16 FG, 6-8 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and four steals over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 82-58 win over North Carolina.

Impact Copeland was undoubtedly the best player on the floor Tuesday, and he carried the Wolfpack to an impressive win over a depleted UNC squad. Copeland has been playing well of late. Over his last 10 games, the star guard is averaging 14.8 points, 4.4 rebounds, 8.1 assists and 2.3 steals per game despite shooting just 28.6 percent from three.

Scottie Ebube - Ruled out Tuesday Ebube (undisclosed) is out Tuesday against North Carolina.

Impact Ebube was listed as questionable after missing the Wolfpack's collapse against Miami on Valentine's Day, but he'll now miss a second straight contest. The senior forward has played in just three games -- totaling nine minutes -- since the calendar flipped to 2026.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Scottie Ebube - Tabbed questionable Ebube is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against North Carolina due to an undisclosed injury.

Impact Ebube has been a fringe rotation piece lately, and his availability is at risk due to an unspecified injury. The senior center has appeared in 12 games, averaging 1.5 points and 1.0 rebounds across 4.0 minutes.

Paul McNeil Jr. - Bounces back offensively McNeil closed with 14 points (5-8 FG, 4-7 3Pt), four rebounds and two blocks across 31 minutes during Saturday's 77-76 loss to Miami (FL).

Impact McNeil put up a rare goose egg on the scoreboard earlier this week in a blowout loss at Louisville, so it was good to see the sophomore wing get his offense back on track, even if it was in defeat. McNeil leads the Wolfpack with 81 three-pointers made and is hitting them at a 43.5 percent clip, but being a player whose overall output hinges on perimeter success is a formula for a volatile game log from a fantasy standpoint.

Darrion Williams - Tough shooting stretch Williams had 11 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 33 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 77-76 loss to Miami (FL).

Impact Williams is in the midst of one of his bigger slumps of the year, so it comes as little surprise the Wolfpack have lost back-to-back games. Over his last three contests, Williams is averaging 7.7 points on 9-of-34 shooting (26.5 percent), and that stretch surprisingly comes off a run of three games with 20 or more points. NC State remains on the right side of the NCAA Tournament bubble as of Sunday, but Williams & co. have the opportunity to solidify that with a resume-building opportunity at home against North Carolina on Tuesday.

4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Matt Able - Produces 17 points off bench Able registered 17 points (6-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and one block in 22 minutes during Saturday's 77-76 loss to Miami (FL).

Impact Able tied for the highest points on the Wolfpack in the close loss, which was more impressive for him considering it was a season-high. The freshman guard has been the consistent sixth man for NC State up to this point in the season, and it's provided him with some impressive performances. He's now scored double-digit points in ten games this campaign.

Last Night in College Basketball: Arizona is Undefeated No More

Ven-Allen Lubin - Scores 20 in blowout loss Lubin supplied 20 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds and one block across 26 minutes during Monday's 118-77 loss to Louisville.

Impact Lubin was the only Wolfpack player who reached the 20-point mark in a game where they looked overmatched -- only three players reached double-digit points. Lubin, who led the team in points and rebounds in this loss, is averaging a career-high 13.3 points and 7.0 boards per contest in his senior year.

FEBRUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Jordan Snell - Available vs Louisville Snell (undisclosed) will be available for Monday's contest against Louisville, per NC State's official team injury report.

Impact Snell will be available for Monday's contest after missing time due to an undisclosed injury. The 6-foot-3 senior has appeared in just six contests this season for an average of 2.5 minutes per game.

FEBRUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Colt Langdon - Out Monday Langdon (undisclosed) is out for Monday's matchup against Louisville, per NC State's official team injury report.

Impact Langdon recently underwent surgery and is reportedly progressing well in his recovery. The 6-foot-7 freshman has appeared in just six games as a bench reserve this season and will continue to be held out until he can fully recover from his surgery.

FEBRUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Tre Holloman - Three-point specialist Holloman notched 16 points (6-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Saturday's 82-73 win over Virginia Tech.

Impact It was Holloman's third straight game in double figures and tied for his second-best scoring total of the 2025-26 campaign. The senior transfer from Michigan State is essentially a three-point specialist, as he's cashed exactly three three-pointers in three consecutive games. On the year, he's shooting 42.1 percent from distance -- nine points better than a season ago.

Copeland sets the table with 16 assists to send NC State past SMU 84-83

Darrion Williams scored 25 points and Quadir Copeland posted a double-double and NC State stayed perfect on the road in ACC play by beating SMU 84-83

FEBRUARY 4 • Associated Press

Darrion Williams - Scores 25 points in win Williams provided 25 points (8-18 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 3-4 FT) and three rebounds in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 84-83 victory over SMU.

Impact Quadir Copeland stole the show with his 14-assist performance in this win, but Williams certainly made his presence felt as a reliable scoring weapon as well. This was Williams' third straight game with at least 20 points, and it's safe to say he's trending in the right direction after going through a slump in late December and early January.

FEBRUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Quadir Copeland - Delivers 16 assists in win Copeland registered seven points (1-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 10 rebounds, 16 assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 84-83 win over SMU.

Impact Copeland is quickly ascending into the top tier among floor generals in college basketball this season, and this 16-assist performance was a masterful effort that guided the Wolfpack to a tough win over SMU. Copeland has dished out 44 assists while committing just eight turnovers over his last four games and is averaging 8.4 dimes per game in ACC play.

FEBRUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Paul McNeil Jr. - Gets hot from outside McNeil accumulated 28 points (8-12 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 36 minutes during Saturday's 96-78 win over Wake Forest.

Impact McNeil continues to provide the Wolfpack with reliable outside shooting, making one or more three-pointer in each of his last 11 games and shooting an incredible 48.4 percent from distance over that span. That stretch also includes individual games of five and six points, in addition to a 47-point outburst, so the sophomore can be a bit boom-or-bust. Next up is a road matchup against SMU on Tuesday.

FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Scottie Ebube - Ready to ride Saturday Ebube (ankle) is available Saturday at Wake Forest.

Impact Ebube has missed the past five games with an ankle injury, but the reserve forward is available versus the Demon Deacons on Saturday.

JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE

Scottie Ebube - Returns to practice Ebube (ankle) is back at practice for NC State, per Noah Fleischman of On3.com.

Impact Ebube has sat out the last five games for NC State, but the reserve forward, who averages just 1.6 points and 1.2 rebounds this season, appears to be nearing a return.

JANUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Darrion Williams - Outside shooting clicks Williams ended with 23 points (9-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt), six rebounds and five assists in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 88-68 victory over Syracuse.

Impact Williams finally got his outside shot going against a Syracuse team that generally has a respectable perimeter defense, and the end result was the senior scoring his most point in a game since Nov. 17. Of course, Williams affects the game in other ways, with averages of 5.5 rebounds and 3.4 assists that are right in line with last year's marks at Texas Tech. He'll remain a key piece as coach Will Wade's Wolfpack look to secure their spot in the NCAA Tournament.

JANUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Scottie Ebube - Out Tuesday Ebube (ankle) won't play in Tuesday's game against Syracuse.

Impact Ebube was initially listed as questionable for Tuesday's game, but he'll wind up missing another contest with what is now known to be an ankle injury, per SB Nation. Ebube's next chance to play will come Saturday at Wake Forest.

JANUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Quadir Copeland - One assist shy of double-double Copeland produced 20 points (6-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 8-9 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 36 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 81-72 victory over Pittsburgh.

Impact Copeland reached the 20-point mark for the first time since Dec. 3, when he posted 22 points in a loss to Auburn, but he does more than just score. His ability as a playmaker tends to go underrated, and he has notched at least six assists in all but one of his last 12 contests. During that 12-game stretch, Copeland is averaging an impressive 13.8 points and 7.3 assists per game, numbers that have made him a key offensive cog for the Wolfpack.

JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Colt Langdon - Out Tuesday Langdon (undisclosed) is out for Tuesday's game against Syracuse.

Impact Langdon won't be an option for this contest, although his absence shouldn't affect many fantasy decisions. He's averaging just 3.2 minutes per game in his six appearances off the bench this season.
