Former Stanford point guard Michael O’Connell announced Sunday that he is transferring to North Carolina State.

O’Connell started 76 games for the Cardinal over the past three season. He reportedly chose the Wolfpack over Notre Dame and Wichita State.

When he entered the transfer portal last month, O’Connell said he will graduate from Stanford in June and will have two seasons of eligibility remaining.

The 6-foot-2 O’Connell averaged 5.2 points, 3.1 assists and 2.5 rebounds in 33 games (28 starts) for Stanford during the 2022-23 campaign.

His 285 career assists rank 15th in Cardinal history.

O’Connell had career averages of 6.3 points, 3.2 assists and 2.7 rebounds in 89 games (76 starts) for Stanford.
