Since the commitment of five-star recruit Jaylen Hoard, the spotlight of Wake Forest Basketball has almost entirely been on him. That’s not his fault, as he looks to be ready to lead the team and become one of the focal points of both ends of the floor.
As a result of this hype, many analysts and fans alike forget other key players who may have “slipped through” the attention as a result.
One of those players who has managed to fall through that spotlight is Melo Eggleston. Melo had a limited first year for the Deacons as he was held up in a heavy backcourt roster.
