Scottie Ebube breaks into the rotation, Wade ready to “Let him go in there and wreck things up.”

One question many State fans, including myself, have been asking is “Why doesn’t Scottie Ebube get any minutes?”

No one thinks he should be eating into Ven-Allen Lubin’s minutes, but in a recent press conference, Wade suggested that they need to find ways to reduce the load on State’s starting big man. Lubin has played over 30 minutes in 4 of NC State’s 6 games against Top-50 opponents. The guy is an absolute soldier and hasn’t looked gassed, hasn’t asked to be taken out, just stays in there competes and does his job.

But over the course of a seaosn, it wears you down and Wade is making a smart move now by seeing what he has in Scottie Ebube.
