NC State men’s basketball isn’t playing in the ACC Tournament this week, a first in the conference’s history that teams weren’t invited. But with the expansion of the league, three squads were left home from Charlotte. The reigning champs just happened to be one of them. Missing the tournament seemed to be the nail in the coffin of Wolfpack coach Kevin Keatts’ future in Raleigh as he was fired on Sunday morning. With that move, the transfer portal is open for the Pack’s roster, even though it doesn’t officially start until March 25 for the rest of Division I. With that being said, the Wolfpack has yet to have any player announce their intention to enter the portal as of Tuesday morning. NC State is working to hire a new coach, which some of the players might be waiting to see who it is before opting to leave. This is a look at the Pack’s current scholarship players entering the 2025-26 season and what their roles would look like if they stayed in Raleigh.
