Following the end of the 2021-22 men’s basketball season, the backcourt of the team saw massive departures. Senior guards Michael Almonacy and Justin Forrest graduated, while Adrian Delph declared for the NBA draft. This left a lot of production needing to be filled for the Black and Gold. Insert sophomore guard Terence Harcum.

Growing up, Harcum patterned his own game after a few different NBA players. Most notably Portland Trail Blazers’ star Damian Lillard, New Orleans Pelicans’ guard CJ McCollum and Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo.

In his high school career, Harcum scored 2,418 points, which ranks 13th all-time in North Carolina high school basketball history.
