D.J. Funderburk Could ‘Possibly’ Return Tonight
According to Mark Armstrong of ABC11, NC State head coach Kevin Keatts said it’s a possibility Redshirt Junior Forward D.J. Funderburk returns tonight.
Redshirt Junior Forward D.J. Funderburk was suspended indefinitely back on September 30th for a violation of team policy. As a result, he was not allowed to practice with the team, or do anything basketball related with the program.
On September 25, Funderburk was involved in a parking incident on campus that is definitely a factor in his suspension, but there are more than likely other factors involved.
Last week Keatts announced that Funderburk had returned to practice with the team, but didn’t have a timeline for his return to game action.
The return of Funderburk will be a huge addition to the team. I believe that he has All-ACC potential.
