While media attention is going to initially shine on the need for Trevor Lacy and Cat Barber to lead the young installment of 2014-2015 NC State Basketball, I think that the talent and depth of the young frontcourt may be overlooked by the average college basketball follower. I think we are all in for quite a treat this season as we will watch tremendous development and improvement amongst the Wolfpack’s four talented interchangeable post players.
I am particularly excited about watching Kyle Washington, and I think the talent and depth of Bee Jay Anya, Lennard Freeman & Abdul-Malik Abu is going to give NC State a much more potent punch than many are expecting in the preseason; as these guys develop during the year, this is going to be come a very dangerous team.
NBC Sports College Basketball Talk deserves some credit for taking notice of the Pack and recognizing how good this unit can become. CBT just listed NC State’s frontcourt as the 20th best unit in the country.
Like UNC, this ranking could turn out to be too low by the end of the season. BeeJay Anya’s in far better shape than he was last season, and players such as Jordan Washington, Lennard Freeman and Abdul-Malik Abu will be factors as well.
I know that you need more Wolfpack in your life today…so, click here and get to it!
