The Wolfpack, after beating Duke, after winning what amounts to nine elimination games, are headed to Phoenix to face Purdue in the Final Four.

DJ Horne got a chance to play at home when he transferred to North Carolina State this season after starting for two other schools. Big body DJ Burns Jr. wasn't really sure how things were going to play out when he put his name into the transfer portal two years ago. Now the two DJs are going to the Final Four together with a Wolfpack team that hadn't been there in four decades.

The men’s Final Four is now set following No. 1 Purdue and No. 11 North Carolina State victories on Sunday.

Duke Blue Devils have horrible shooting day and their defense had no answers for N.C. State in the second half as the Wolfpack head to the Final Four.

Perhaps “Zaza” should be added to that list now that North Carolina State guard Aziaha James has helped get the Wolfpack into the Final Four. “As y'all saw this weekend, she is that girl,” teammate River Baldwin said. Called Zaza by her teammates, James scored 29 points — 25 in the second half — in the third-seeded Wolfpack's 77-67 Sweet 16 victory over Stanford, then had 27 — including a career-high seven 3-pointers — in a 76-66 Elite Eight victory over top-seeded Texas.
