SCOUTING REPORT
Strengths: The 6’11” big man from Senegal is an athletic treat for any team looking for a push-the-floor center. He has a motor like a forward, with the wing-span and height of a center. He has great awareness for young player, and he also sets wide picks with good acceleration to the rim on the roll. Diagne plays hard on the defensive end of the floor as well, and his low base and quick feet enable him to stay with quicker offensive players.

Weaknesses: Diagne clearly has some work to do on his shot fluency. He can create his own space well, but doesn’t necessarily inspire confidence with his touch. On defense, Diagne almost seems too low to the ground to cover some of the NBA’s big men. His smaller mass may be a disadvantage to him as well.
