Hamidou Diallo may have the highest ceiling of any player in college basketball this year. He’s 6’5” in shoes, weighing 197 lbs with a wingspan of 6’11”. Oh, and he can jump 44.5” (that’s nearly four feet, for those of you keeping track at home).
Athletically speaking, Diallo is the Holy Grail of guards. But the issue is that all we have are Diallo’s physical and athletic measurements. Aside from his measurables, we know only this: his jumper needs work. And thanks to him redshirting last year, we didn’t get to see it’s progress.
Also because of that decision to redshirt, Diallo’s entire body of work was shrouded in mystery when he submitted his name to the NBA Draft. NBA scouts and front offices salivated over his athleticism, and prayed his jumper would improve. For weeks, even months, all we heard about Diallo was his potential.
