NC State basketball adds grad transfer from Baylor

N.C. State’s backcourt makeover continues under new coach Kevin Keatts. The Wolfpack added guard Al Freeman, a graduate transfer from Baylor, on Wednesday.

Freeman (6-3, 200 pounds) averaged 9.7 points and 2.5 rebounds for the Bears last season and helped them reach the Sweet 16. Freeman, originally from Charlotte, will graduate in May and be eligible to play immediately.

Freeman joins freshman guard Lavar Batts as new additions under Keatts, who was hired on March 17.

The Wolfpack has to replace guards Dennis Smith Jr. and Maverick Rowan, who have both entered the NBA draft. Terry Henderson has applied to the NCAA for a sixth-year waiver.
