In this episode of 5 Questions, Inside Pack Sports breaks down NC State guard Tre Holloman — what his transfer from Michigan State means, how he fits into Will Wade’s system, and whether he can hold onto the starting point guard job this season.
Holloman brings Big Ten toughness, structure, and poise — traits that NC State needs after major roster turnover.
The analytics love him: preseason projections have him as one of State’s top scorers. But with Q Copeland, Alyn Breed, Paul McNeil, and Matthew Able all pushing for minutes, his role could fluctuate based on how consistently he shoots and defends.
We dive into the numbers, the eye test, and the roster dynamics to answer five key questions:
Was Tre Holloman brought in to start from day one?
How has NC State’s portal class changed his role?
Can his three-point shooting return to 40% form?
What’s the ceiling — and the risk — for his 2024–25 season?
How does his leadership impact Will Wade’s first year in Raleigh?
Bottom line: if Holloman defends, makes shots, and stabilizes the offense, he could be the steadying force that defines NC State’s backcourt identity.
