Who will be NC State basketball’s leading scorer this season?

I was pondering the leading scorer question yesterday after discovering Bart Torvik’s initial player projections for next season. Torvik’s system expects Torin Dorn to lead NC State with a shade over 16 points per game in 2019, followed by Markell Johnson at 12.3 and C.J. Bryce at 11.3.

That seems like a reasonable bump in scoring for Dorn, who averaged about 14 per game last season; given the roster turnover, there’s a pretty good chance that his workload increases, and his scoring along with it.

But I also would not be surprised if it were one of the now-eligible transfers—either Bryce or Devon Daniels—that ends up leading the way.
