Twins Caleb and Cody Martin will transfer from N.C. State.
Caleb finished fourth on the team in scoring, averaging 11.5 points per game, while Cody averaged 6 points per game. The twins are North Carolina natives.
The Wolfpack will now lose three of their top five scorers with point guard Anthony “Cat” Barber declaring for the NBA Draft.
“Through a series of honest, thoughtful and somewhat surprising conversations we have had in the days since our season ended, Caleb and Cody have informed me of their desire to explore options that they believe are in both of their best interests,” N.C. State head coach Mark Gottfried said in a statement.
“While I don’t share all of their views, I have certainly come to understand and respect the unique dynamic and special bond that exists between identical twins, especially when they play the same sport for the same team. I enjoyed coaching them over the past two years.”
