Pate denied two-way and 10-day opportunities in order to maintain eligibility. The former G-League Ignite player averaged 16 points per game this season as he looks to make his collegiate debut at Providence.

Pate was a former top-30 recruit out of high-school. He will join San Diego State transfer Miles Byrd, who Providence acquired Thursday, in Friar town.
