I don’t know how this team does it sometimes, even when I’m watching it as it happens. This Wolfpack team keeps finding different ways to win.
Neither Jarkel Joiner nor Terquavion Smith had a good day shooting the ball—Smith made a three early on and went 0-fer the rest of the game—but DJ Burns and Ernest Ross were there to pick up the slack.
NC State won this game thanks to strong finishes to both halves; the Pack closed out the first with a 10-0 run, with Ross scoring seven points over the last three minutes, including a corner three.
