Zoom Diallo gained Malachi Moreno and maybe more noteworthy, KentuckyMBB as followers on Instagram.

As someone that’s addicted like everyone else, I can confirm neither of those accounts followed him a day or two ago.

My dumb read is this one is done and they’re working on the social announcement.

He's a good first get. He really is. He's not as good as Rob but he at least opens up some more cash for other transfers (Freeman, Wilkins) who are both really good players that we might not have had room for, otherwise.

Probably won't get anyone, not sure why I'm trying to stay positive lol

Yeah thats true like pope’s first year we didn’t need a superstar that cost 4 million at point guard we had Lamont butler who probably cost like 1 million we just need someone who could distribute and run the offense

I do hope this is true.

However, just as he heats up in games next season, we will see him pulled thanks to analytics which tell Pope he was playing too well and must be fatigued.

Diallo does absolutely nothing for me. He is not a star and is not even as good as Aberdeen was. He's a fine 4th or 5th option.

Aberdeen: ORtg = 121.3, DRtg = 114.4 (+6.9 points per 100 possessions), OWS = 2.6, DWS = 0.9
Diallo: ORtg = 114.7, DRtg = 112.5 (+2.2 points), OWS = 2.3, DWS = 0.9

That team was full of dudes that had played a pretty decent level of college basketball for four years. Apples and oranges to what is happening now.
