NC State’s 6-6 freshman wing with real two-way juice
In the 2025-26 season, Matt Able gave NC State a legit bench spark: 8.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, 0.9 assists, and 35.5% from three in 21.8 minutes per game, with stronger ACC numbers in conference play. His calling card is wing size with shot-making and attack-the-closeout ability, plus enough rebounding and defensive activity to stay on the floor. He arrived as a consensus top-30 recruit and five-star-level prospect, and the best part is the upside: if you want a long, versatile guard who can space the floor and keep climbing, this is your guy.
