Ahh, Courtney Fells. There is a name State fans haven’t heard in a while. The shooting guard out of Mississippi was a pretty big recruit for Herb Sendek back in the day. Fells was a 6’6 SG guard with a great stroke and good athleticism who has gone on to have a successful career overseas.
As of today, Fells is playing for the NBA D-Leauge’s Westchester Knicks. He’s averaging 8ppg and 3 boards. All of his numbers are down (his career avg is 15ppg) in his age 30 season.
At NC State Fells averaged 10ppg and really was only dominant in spurts, but he certainly has always had his moments where he gave you a taste of what was possible. While he has flirted with making NBA rosters, he hasn’t quite shown the consistency needed to make a career in the bog show. He still has time, but that window is closing. With that said, let’s look back at Courtney Fells top moments.
Remember this…
