NC State (9–4) handled business this afternoon down the road in Greensboro, beating Ole Miss (7–5) 76–62 in a non-conference, neutral-site bout. Here are my Quick Hits.
The Wolfpack players heard Head Coach Will Wade’s scathing postgame press conference earlier this week. After NC State crushed Texas Southern by 36 points on Wednesday night, Wade ripped his team apart.
The Pack played its best half of basketball I’ve seen all season in the first half today.
Defensively, NC State played great on-the-ball defense, handled screens well, and contested nearly every shot.
