What turned out to be Torin Dorn’s final game in an NC State uniform also happened to be his finest offensive performance in his time here. Sadly the end result didn’t reflect the individual effort in this case, but that’s life for you.
Dorn came to NC State at the tail end of Mark Gottfried’s tenure and would become an essential part of Kevin Keatts’ efforts to quickly make the basketball program respectable again. Dorn helped Keatts’ teams succeed in a lot of ways, and without him it’s difficult to imagine the last two seasons going as well as they did.
