The Kansas transfer played in 23 games for the Jayhawks as a Freshman this past year, averaging 2.2 points in 7.6 minutes per game. ON3 ranked Rice as the #24 overall player nationally in the 2022 recruiting class. They also ranked him as the #2 overall player in the Transfer Portal.

NC State isn’t new to Rice. Keatts recruited him heavily, and used to play right down the road in Durham in High School. The Wolfpack coaching staff has crushed the Transfer Portal, adding Butler’s Jayden Taylor, Arizona State’s D.J. Horne, Clemson’s Ben Middlebrooks, and now Rice.

Rice has three years of eligibility remaining.
