WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) — Wake Forest has added graduate transfer Terrence Thompson from Marshall.

Coach Danny Manning announced the addition of Thompson on Monday, calling him “someone who comes in with a level of maturity and experience” that can help the program.

Thompson started 21 of 23 games for the Thundering Herd and had nine games in double figures in points. He began his college career at Charlotte, redshirted in 2013-14 and transferred to a junior college in Georgia before coming to Marshall two years ago.

He fills the roster spot vacated by Dinos Mitoglou, who decided last month to skip his senior season and play professionally in his home country of Greece.
