Virginia Tech Hokies News

Amani Hansberry - Goes for 23 points in win Hansberry closed Thursday's 96-67 win over Mercer with 23 points (9-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block in 27 minutes.

Impact Hansberry looked impressive offensively and missed just four of his 13 shots en route to scoring a team-high 23 points. The star forward should have a prominent role on offense for the Hokies after a 2025-26 season in which he averaged a career-best 14.3 points per game, but he's living up to that. In his first two appearances in 2026-27, he's already averaging 19.5 points and 7.0 rebounds per contest.

Impact Hammond was impressive on both ends of the court for Virginia Tech in this comfortable win, finishing just two assists and three steals shy of a triple-double. Hammond will be the barometer of the Hokies' offense because of his scoring and playmaking. Even though seven steals aren't realistic per game, he should still be able to make a consistent defensive impact.

Miles Heide - Makes team debut Heide (wrist) contributed five points (2-2 FG, 1-4 FT), five rebounds and one block across 20 minutes during Tuesday's 88-54 win over Coppin State.

Impact Heide transferred to Virginia Tech during the offseason after spending three seasons with San Diego State and earned a spot in the Hokies' starting five. The 6-foot-10 center was limited to 20 minutes due to the lead the team built and foul trouble after racking up four personal fouls. He was perfect from the field but struggled at the charity stripe, which has long been a key area for growth, considering he carried a 42.4 career free-throw percentage into the matchup.

At minimum, Hansberry's aforementioned numbers would make him a good option from the ACC.
