Virginia Tech Lands Sudanese Wing

Author: The Daily News Now! June 2, 2026 Duration: 1:37

Virginia Tech’s basketball roster is heating up with a major addition: 2026 wing Eltayeb Eltayeb, a Sudanese standout from Sunrise Christian Academy, just committed to the Hokies. Posting 21.3 PPG, 4.8 RPG, and 3.1 APG with a scorching 43% from three, Eltayeb brings elite versatility and scoring ability. He joins a loaded squad that kept key returners like Hansberry, Johnson, and Hammond, while filling roster gaps with portal additions. With two spots still open, the Hokies are poised to land more high school recruits — and Eltayeb’s arrival signals a strong push for depth and firepower in the upcoming season.
