NC State Men’s Offers 4-Star Jahki Howard

Published

on

Last Thursday, the Wolfpack offered 2024 Small Forward Jahki Howard (6’7″/180) out of Overtime Elite (Atlanta, GA).

ESPN ranks Howard as the #53 overall player nationally in the 2024 recruiting class, and the #3 player in the state of Georgia.

Howard is familiar with NC State, because NC State 2023 signee Trey Parker played with him down at Overtime Elite. In 2022-23, Howard averaged 10.1 points per game, shooting 58.6% from the field.

Check out these pictures of Howard on an unofficial visit to NC State with Parker.

Between the transfer portal and high school recruiting the basketball staff must never sleep. Great to see so much activity. Keatts et al seem to be chasing more top 50 players as opposed to trying to find diamonds in the top 150 rough. In any event, hard work pays benefits. I am very pleased with the direction the program is heading.
