Ven-Allen Lubin made history as the first men's basketball player to transfer directly from North Carolina to NC State, completing a journey through three previous programs. A consensus four-star recruit ranked as high as No. 47 nationally out of Orlando Christian Prep, where he led his team to the 2020 Class 2A state title, Lubin began his college career at Notre Dame in 2022-23. He appeared in 28 games with seven starts for the Irish, averaging 6.2 points and 4.4 rebounds while leading the team in field goal percentage (58.0 percent) and blocks (23). He transferred to Vanderbilt for his sophomore season, stepping into a larger role under Jerry Stackhouse and averaging 12.3 points and 6.3 rebounds in 28 starts. Lubin then moved to North Carolina for the 2024-25 season, where he averaged 8.7 points and 5.5 rebounds while shooting 68.4 percent from the field in 19 starts for the Tar Heels. He entered the transfer portal in April 2025 due to complexities surrounding the pending NCAA settlement, ultimately choosing to cross the rivalry lines and sign with Will Wade at NC State for his senior year.
