An interested spectator at the Louisville-UConn women’s basketball game Tuesday was Gorgui Dieng, the 6-foot-11 center for the men’s basketball team. Dieng was wearing an ankle-high boot on his right leg. Gotta love the winter cap, but the Air Jordan sweatshirt is a little concerning, indicating some level of familiarization with the NBA.

Dieng’s potential is great but he needs to put some muscle on that frame to be considered a serious Big East center. I don’t think u have to worry about NBA scouts drooling over him yet.
Some level of familiarization with the NBA? Seriously? These kids know about the NBA shortly after they enroll in pre-school.
Sorry about that, Jason. He seemed to be doing just fine.
Geesh Charlie! When initially reading the post’s title, all I caught was “Gorgui Out.”
Scared me there for a second!
