Omer Yurtseven proves worth the wait in strong debut for NC State
Posted Dec 18, 2016
NC State's seven-foot freshman Omer Yurtseven debuted for the Pack (8-2) in its 97-64 win against Appalachian State (3-6) as well as he could've. "I would really say he was phenomenal for a debut game," Dennis Smith Jr said. "He came out a little bit nervous, but he picked it up. He knocked down the three, he finished around the rim."
