Jericole Hellems on playing in front of fans again: “I haven’t seen it in a while, it’s gonna be lovely”

Jericole Hellems has emerged as a critical piece for Kevin Keatts and NC State’s 4-around-1 offense. Hellems has enough shooting to space the floor on offense and provides enough punch on the glass to rebound and defend as a small-ball power forward, while switching around the guard four different positions.

During the 2020-21 season, Hellems enjoyed his best season in a Wolfpack uniform: 12.9 points and 5.0 rebounds per game. Hellems also shot a career-best 37.8 percent on his 3-point attempts.

Hellems joins The Drive with Josh Graham to discuss storming the field after NC State defeated Clemson in football, the ACL injury to Devon Daniels, Breon Pass and playing the 2020-21 season amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
