NC State currently has twelve scholarships filled for the 2018-2019 season after landing a commitment from four-star combo forward Jericole Hellems. Here is a closer look at the Wolfpack's projected roster and depth chart.

2018-2019 Projected NC State Scholarship Roster

Here is an updated roster of the scholarship players following the Jericole Hellems commitment.

Torin Dorn	G	R-Sr.	Vance (Charlotte, N.C.)	6-5/208
Dorn led Charlotte in scoring as a true freshman and transferred to NC State after the 2014 season. He played a reserve role last year but should be an ideal fit in NC State's four-out, one-in offense.
Shaun Kirk	G/F	Sr.	Whiteville (Whiteville, N.C.)	6-8/195
Kirk is a high-flying athlete who is still developing his basketball skills but has a high upside. He can hit open 3-pointers and finish at the rim, but is still developing his ball-handling and mid-range game. Kirk should provide much-needed depth this season.
C.J. Bryce	G	R-Jr.	UNC Wilmington (Charlotte, N.C.)	6-5/190
A terrific perimeter player, Bryce was a huge pickup for the Wolfpack as the first-team All-CAA performer projects to be a major contributor in Kevin Keatts' system. He must sit out the 2017-2018 season due to NCAA rules.
Darius Hicks	F	Jr.	22 Feet Academy (Quitman, MS)	6-7/231
Capable of playing both forward positions, Hicks adds athleticism and versatility to the roster. Look for him to provide valuable depth as a sophomore.
Omer Yurtseven	C	Jr.	Fenerbahçe (Istanbul, Turkey)	7-0/250
Yurtseven could be a major weapon in NC State's four-out, one-in offensive system. Will this be his last year in Raleigh?
Markell Johnson	G	Jr.	East Tech HS (Cleveland, OH)	6-1/164
A dynamic athlete, Johnson can play both guard positions for the Wolfpack and should open the season as the starting point guard. He has a chance to have a breakout year.
Devon Daniels	G	R-Soph.	Utah (Battle Creek, MI)	6-5/200
An efficient player who produced as a true freshman for Utah, Daniels projects to be an impact player for the Wolfpack. He must sit out the 2017-2018 season due to NCAA rules.
Lavar Batts Jr.	G	Soph.	Robinson (Concord, N.C.)	6-2/185
Batts was the first commitment of the Kevin Keatts era. A former VCU signee, he should play major minutes as a true freshman and is capable of playing on or off the basketball.
Braxton Beverly	G	R-Fr.	Hargrave (Hazard, KY)	6-0/180
A former Ohio State signee, Beverly joined his former prep school coach, A.W. Hamilton, in Raleigh. He must sit out this season due to a recent NCAA ruling but will have four years of eligibility remaining.
Immanuel Bates	C	Fr.	Northwood Temple (Fayetteville, N.C.)	6-11/215
Bates is NC State's first commitment in the 2018 recruiting class. An elite-level shotblocker, his offensive game is still raw, but he will likely need to play right away for the Wolfpack.
Ian Steere	PF/C	Fr.	Northwood Temple (Fayetteville, N.C.)	6-9/260
Steere has the size and athleticism to impact right away at NC State. His overall skillset is a terrific fit in the Wolfpack's offensive system, and he should flourish as a rim-runner on offense and rim protector on defense.
Jericole Hellems	F	Fr.	Chaminade (St. Louis, MO)	6-7/210
Hellems will fill the small-ball, four-man role NC State has been looking for in the 2018 recruiting class. His versatility and toughness should enable him to see the floor as a true freshman.

2018-2019 NC State Projected Depth Chart
Here is a look at the scholarship roster based on classes and positions. NC State will have twelve eligible scholarship players at this point in the process.
