a rugged, rebound-first forward who brings instant-energy glue to Wake Forest
Terrence Thompson is a senior forward known more for doing the gritty, winning stuff than stuffing a box score: in the 2017-18 season at Wake Forest, he averaged 3.5 points and 3.9 rebounds in 16.3 minutes, while his Marshall résumé showed the real appeal—efficient scoring around the rim, double-double potential, and active glass work. He fits as a high-motor, screen-roll, put-back threat who gives a team toughness, tempo, and reliability. If you want flash, look elsewhere; if you want a steady rebounder who can make an offense hum, he’s your guy.
