Freshman Shooting Guard Matt Able was NC State Men’s Basketball Wolfpack Standard Player of the Week this week.

Here’s what Wolfpack Head Coach Will Wade had to say about Able.

“Weekly player rankings based on showing up on time, based on body, mind, nutrition, your effort basketball wise, based on being a good teammate. 

3rd place this week was (Quadir) Copeland. 45 total points. Not bad for Copeland. 

2nd place was (Ven-Allen) Lubin. 46 points. 

1st place was Able. 49 points. Very good job. Very good job. Shows up on time. Does the right s&%$ for the most part. Good job. Good job by Matt.”

Able verbally committed to run with the Wolfpack on April 5th.

He originally signed his National Letter of Intent to play for Miami back in November. Jim Larranaga stepped down as the Head Coach of the Hurricanes in December, and Able decommitted on February 28th. Miami gave him his release on February 21st.

The Florida High School standout took Official Visits to Tennessee, Alabama, Baylor, Stanford, and took one to NC State a week ago.

Able is a 5-star prospect according to 247Sports’ Composite Rankings. ON3 ranks him as the #19 overall player nationally in the 2025 recruiting class, the #6 Shooting Guard and the #3 player in the state of Florida.

In his final season of high school ball, Able averaged 20.4 points and 5.9 rebounds for Sagemont Prep in Tampa, shooting 40% from three.
