Noting NC Staten Senior forward Abdul-Malik Abu is NC State’s leading returning scorer (11.8 ppg.) and rebounder (7.0 rpg.). The Boston, Mass., native has led NC State in rebounding the last two seasons and is aiming to be the first NC State player to lead the Pack in rebounding in three consecutive seasons since Todd Fuller did it from 1993-96. Abu suffered a Grade 2 MCL Sprain in October and did not play in last week’s exhibition game against Mars Hill.n Torin Dorn (18 starts) and Omer Yurtseven (14 starts) also return for the Pack. Dorn averaged 9.5 points and 4.6 rebounds per game last season as a sophomore, while Yurtseven added 5.9 points and 4.4 rebounds per contest. n NC State must replace its top three scorers from last season in Dennis Smith, Jr. (18.1), Terry Henderson (13.8) and Maverick Rowan (12.0). The Pack also lost the school’s all-time shot block leader in BeeJay Anya (243 career blocks). Smith, Jr., was named the ACC Freshman of the Year, the first Pack player to accomplish this feat since Hawkeye Whitney in 1977. Smith was selected by the Dallas Mavericks with the ninth pick of the NBA Draft. Henderson, after having his appeal denied to return to NC State, went through training camp with the Charlotte Hornets and is now on the Greensboro Swarm roster in the NBA G-League. Rowan was the third overall selection of the NBA G-League draft by the Lakeland Magic.n NC State joins Florida State and Pittsburgh as the only ACC teams to lose its top three scorers from last season.

NC State-VMI Series n NC State leads the all-time series with VMI, 22-8.n NC State has won the last eight meetings between the two teams.n VMI last beat NC State in the 1940-41 season. n The Pack won the last meeting between the two programs,75-55, on Nov. 23, 2005.

Friday Storylinesn Coaching debut of Kevin Keatts at NC State as the 20th head coach in Wolfpack men’s basketball history. The last nine NC State head coaches have won their debut. Bob Warren in the1940-41 season is the last coach to lose his debut game.n With two players sitting out as transfers, freshman guard Braxton Beverly not cleared and senior forward Abdul-Malik Abu out with injury, NC State will only dress nine scholarship players in uniform on Friday night.n The Wolfpack welcomed six newcomers to the roster this season. Grad transfer Allerik Freeman and Sam Hunt, transfers C.J. Bryce and Devon Daniels (both sitting out 2017-18 season per NCAA rules) and freshmen Lavar Batts, Jr., and Braxton Beverly.
