Floyd Rideau Jr. gives NCCU a long, efficient wing guard with real shot-making pop
Rideau is a 6-foot-5 senior guard who offers North Carolina Central a valuable mix of size, perimeter scoring, and floor spacing, with 2024-25 shooting marks of 42.7% from the field and 41.9% from three while averaging 6.5 points per game. He has already shown he can pop for bigger nights, including a 26-point outing for NCCU and a 20-point career high earlier in his college journey, which suggests a player who can swing a game when his jumper is dialed in. At 170 pounds, he profiles as a lean, skill-first fit rather than a bruiser, but his shooting efficiency and guard length make him an appealing complementary piece.[1][3][6]
