Former Louisville guard/forward Mike James told On3’s Joe Tipton he committed to NC State on Tuesday afternoon. The Cardinals’ stalwart in the starting lineup has two years of eligibility remaining as he arrives in Raleigh.  James is the third transfer portal commitment of the cycle for the Wolfpack, including the second wing to pick the red and white after the team’s Final Four run. James helps fill a need on the Wolfpack’s roster and will make the team’s roster even deeper moving into the 2024-25 season.
