2024 3-Star Center Offer

[lobbybuu]

If you saw my DJ Khaled gif on Twitter earlier today, this is why.

Legit 7 footer and the leading shot blocker and one of the leading rebounders in the Nike EYBL this spring/summer. James Evans and him are close and they are together at Peach Jam right now.

I hope Evans is the recruiter Dedan and Cottrell are!

Thank you, @lobbybuu, for bringing back the excitement to our recruiting that has been missing for a while!

IMO the 3 star rating is misleading in that the composite ranking on the kid is 101 in the country and a 4 star. That’s what I don’t like about rankings. Also, what the difference in a player ranked 101 and 81? Just an opinion. Also, his offers are Kansas, Arizona State and Seton Hall.

Smooth and power looking at the video. Some good programs going after him.

It appears UNLV is in the running for another 2024 Big in Makhan Diouf who is a consensus 4 star center according to On3.

Very skilled. I think you are starting to see the impact of NBA Global. The kids from Africa are now coming in much more skilled. No. 14 in the video. Also, he is now 7’1”.

 

[TimothyC3]

If I were CKK, based on Diouf‘s skill set and the way he runs the floor and can shoot I would take both and let Diouf play the stretch 4 and Stephen in the post.

So wait, not all 7 footers are slow footed or out of UNLV’s reach recruiting wise?!!!
7 footers like these are only for the power 5, or at least that’s what some on here think!

I don’t think many felt it was a question that a 7 footer was out of UNLV reach recruiting wise. Many felt it just wasn’t required to compete nationally with athletic Bigs in the 6’9” range. University of Houston is good example. That were rated No. 1 in the country for most of last year with only one player at 6’9” and 4 at 6’8”. However, that doesn’t mean you don’t recruit mobile 7 footers if you can land them. Also, I think International players are impacting the game because now close to 50% of D-1 7 footers are international.

He was just offered by Ucla and Xavier. U tube film I watched did not have competition in it.

Not a finished product by any mean but the kid got a tons of potentials. If he come to UNLV, it is going to be fun. Less 3 pts and more slash and drives like Giannis At

That’s the type of list you hope to be involved with. Not San Fran, San Jose, LMU and Southern Utah.

Anyone know if that was that a "No Dunking" league those videos were taken in? Not seeing a 7' 1" guy not throw it down even once is surprising.

Maybe they just wanted to high light his outside game? not nearly as clear video from international play.

That pass at :27 was ridiculous.
Thanks for the video. Definitely shows more skills there.

I saw DJ Kaled at the CrazyHorse off Russell like 10 years.

Where are the games, maybe I can go with you and get footage.
