Beejay Anya Thinning Up

NC State is going to have to rely a great deal on the interior presence of sophomore Beejay Anya. The problem with that is Anya wan’t in-shape enough to actually get through more than 10 minutes at a time last season due to his weight problem.

This offseason is vital for the big man, who is slated to start come November. Anya has the tools to be great, now he just needs to focus on slimming down. We’ve been wondering were he was in that process and was hoping not to see him the next time we roll into ‘I Heart NY Pizza.’  Today our questions were answered when NC State Basketball’s Facebook page posted this pic if the shirtless Anya.

He’s not going to be turning heads at the beach just yet, but wow, Beejay has certainly dropped a ton of weight. Last season we reported that he was the first guy in the gym on most mornings, working on the bike and in the weight room, and now he’s seeing the fruit of that labor. Don’t stop now Beejay!! You have 5 more months to get all Richard Howell on us!
