RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) Terquavion Smith scored 24 points, Casey Morsell added 17 points and North Carolina State forced a season-high 20 turnovers in a 92-73 victory over Furman Paladins on Tuesday night.
Morsell scored 12 points in the opening eight minutes, making 3 of 4 3-pointers, to help N.C. State build a 26-10 lead. The Wolfpack led 48-29 at the break after shooting 52% from the field and scoring 15 points off 14 Furman turnovers. Smith led the way with 14 points for the Wolfpack.
Smith and Morsell each had a 3-pointer in the opening three minutes of the second half for a 27-point lead.
Jack Clark scored 15 points, LJ Thomas had a career-high 14 points and Jarkel Joiner added 10 for N.C. State (9-3), which rebounded from an 80-73 loss to Miami. D.J. Burns Jr. was the lone Wolfpack starter not in double figures with seven points in 17 minutes.
Nine different N.C. State players had a steal, led by Thomas' four and three apiece from Smith and Clark.
Mike Bothwell scored 14 points for Furman (7-4).
N.C. State plays Vanderbilt (5-5), coming off a loss to Grambling, on Saturday at the Legends of Basketball Showcase in Chicago.
