NC State men’s basketball sophomore guard Terquavion Smith reported neck and elbow pain and had numbness in his right arm after a foul midway through the second half of Saturday's game at North Carolina.
Due to the report of neck pain, medical procedure required the use of a backboard and stretcher to move him. Smith was taken to UNC Medical Center and all X-rays taken Saturday night were negative. He was released from the hospital and returned to Raleigh.
Smith’s playing status is day-to-day.
Smith exited the game with 9:30 remaining. He finished shooting 5 of 15 from the field for 12 points and one assist. UNC pulled away to win 80-69.
NC State (15-5 overall) hosts Notre Dame on Tuesday, and play at Wake Forest on Saturday.
