2024 ACC Tournament injuries

Dennis Parker Jr., NC State

Dennis Parker Jr. is questionable to play on Friday against Virginia due to an illness.

Parker hasn't suited up since March 4, when he played just three minutes against Duke. He couldn't play on Thursday when the Wolfpack upset Duke to advance to the semifinals.

"Obviously, we're prepared for this," coach Kevin Keatts said about NC State's win, via CBS. "I would say this: A lot of people, we talk about our conditioning and how it pays off for us, and when you look at those three games that we played, honestly, we've looked like the more fresh team than anybody."

The freshman guard has competed in 29 matchups, starting 12 while averaging 4.7 points, 3.2 rebounds and 0.4 assists this season.

LJ Thomas, NC State

The only other player on the injury report is LJ Thomas, who is out for Friday's outing as he's dealing with an undisclosed injury.

The sophomore guard hasn't played since Jan. 30, and this season, he's averaging 2.6 points, 1.1 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 12 games.
