All the hype surrounding the upcoming basketball season at Wake Forest has been about the youth, and for good reason. Freshman forwards Isaiah Mucius and Jaylen Hoard look to be key contributors early on, with the latter potentially being a lottery selection in next year’s NBA draft.
The staff has also done its job in the recruiting department recently as it was able to scoop up four-star recruit Ismael Massoud over top programs Florida State and Xavier. It’s clear that coach Danny Manning has made significant progress in the youth department as it develop their games over the next few seasons.
