Lorenzo Brown will skip his final college season and enter the NBA draft.

A 6-foot-5 guard, Brown averaged 12.4 points, 7.2 assists and 4.3 rebounds in 33 games for N.C. State this season.

Brown is projected by some to be a late first round pick in the June draft.

While UCLA's top two candidates for their head coaching vacancy are believed to be Mark Stevens and Shaka Smart, sources say Mark Gottfried may end up being the eventual hire.

“Mark said he wants it and the boosters want Mark Gottfried,” the source told SNY.tv. “He’s got the support of the boosters.”

Smart is negotiating an extension at VCU, while Stevens is not interested in the exposure the job would bring.

“Shaka and Brad Stevens were their top choices,” the source said. “Neither of them wants it.”

Gottfried is currently the head coach at N.C. State and was an assistant at UCLA for eight years.

Gottfried has a $3.75 million buyout in his contract with N.C. State.

Virginia Tech's Erick Green has been named the 2013 ACC Player of the Year.

Green was joined on the All-ACC First Team by Virginia's Joe Harris, N.C. State's Richard Howell, Duke's Mason Plumlee and Miami's Shane Larkin.

Miami's Durand Scott was named Defensive Player of the Year, while Boston College's Olivier Hanlan was named Freshman of the Year.

Davis Thompson is selling pieces of his personal basketball memorabilia, including his 1974 N.C. State national championship ring and his old high school jersey.

Thompson said he was selling some of his basketball possessions because, while he “isn’t broke by any means,” most of his memorabilia was gathering dust. And the money wouldn’t hurt, either, he acknowledged.

“Everybody needs money,” said Thompson, who makes a living these days with occasional motivational speeches and personal appearances. “Everybody has bills. A lot of the guys from my generation have done this, and I just felt like the time was right.”

Thompson plans to donate a portion of the auction proceeds to The “V” Foundation for cancer research and the American Diabetes Association

Julius Randle will miss three months with a fractured right foot.

Randle is a consensus top-five player in the class of 2013.

“It’s a minor setback, but Julius is a fighter,” his mother Carolyn Kyles said. “We’ve already begun to set up rehabilitation for him and he’s a naturally a little down now, but he’ll be back before you know it. We’re just staying positive about everything. We know he’ll come back stronger than ever.”

Randle will decide between Kentucky, N.C. State, Florida, Texas, Kansas and Oklahoma and could “potentially” return toward the end of the season.

N.C. State received a commitment from BeeJay Anya, a 6-foot-9 forward who is ranked as a top-40 player in the 2013 class.

Anya drew interest from Indiana, Syracuse, Pittsburgh and Ohio State.

Anya believes he’ll thrive in Wolfpack coach Mark Gottfried's high-post offense.

"I'll do whatever they want me to do to win games," Anya said.

The 2012-13 Naismith early season watch list was released on Wednesday.

Caleb and Cody Martin, twins from Mocksville (NC) Davie County, are headed to North Carolina State.

"When we went down there for team camp, we had just taken a visit to (North) Carolina," Caleb Martin said Thursday.

"It just felt different. I felt more comfortable at N.C. State. I liked the coaches there, and we feel comfortable with the players there."

The Martin twins, both 6-foot-7, held offers from Tennessee, Wake Forest, Virginia Tech and Virginia Commonwealth.

Julius Randle has trimmed his list to six schools: Kentucky, N.C. State, Florida, Texas, Kansas and Oklahoma.

"Yes, it's down to those six schools," Randle said. "I talked to the schools that are out and that's who is left."

Randle is scheduled to visit Florida later this week.

"They came in for the in home and told me that the would like me to go ahead and visit this weekend," said Randle. "So, I'm going to go ahead and visit Florida this weekend."
