Can Coach Hoiberg make this kid good?

[IsUaClone2]

I don't know how high this kid is ranked but there may something to work with: 7-foot-5 Mamadou Ndiaye’s prep highlights are absolutely terrifying | Prep Rally - Yahoo! Sports Kid doesn't seem to work too hard though, he would have to take a lot guff from some of our site members.

Height is a great asset but he looks pretty uncoordinated. I love how he couldn't get the opening tip LOL

We've had our Skoglands and Chris Alexanders!

Mamadou Ndiaye? I thought he used up all his eligibility with Michigan years ago.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

is like the fourth thread about this kid?

Good god, it's like he is playing on a childs hoop. Way slow though for sure.

Maybe make him take dance lessons or something? He does seem pretty uncoordinated. But maybe hes just so young hes in that awkward state that he will grow out of.

Actually Chris Alexander was good. Just a headcase. Skogland was good in 10 Second bursts. Just usually 10 seconds a game.

Didn't he play for Carolina?

Yes, as the posters above said - why do they have a video of him losing the opening tip off in HIS highlights package? !!!!!!!!!!

 

[CycloneNorth]

I bet he has trouble shooting free throws with hands that size.

Th guy dunks against kids that are are not that tall/good. Guy would get creamed in D-1 IMO... As other's have mentioned, he seems very uncoordinated, slow and lost the jump ball. No thanks!

 

[cycopath25]

I saw this on Yahoo this AM. Wondered how long it would take till a poster asked if he would come to ISU.

 

[RustShack]

So how hold is he and what teams are recruiting him?

Per wikipedia, it was Auburn.

This guy is the next Kenny George from UNC Ashville

And that Helmet in your avatar is SICK!!

The best part of the video is toward the beginning. Ndiaye walks by a little (relatively), cute girl, and the cameraman starts following her for half a second.

The rest of it is extremely frustrating for me to watch. Maybe because I feel bad for the kids guarding him. Maybe because I'm jealous.

A different kind of player and dominance, but it reminds me of watching Raef LaFrentz play in a 1-A game in the state tournament at Vets.

He would take the ball coast to coast for a dunk, repeatedly. A 6-11 future NBA'er playing against schools with classes of about 50. Total domination.

He has gigantism. Sad for him. I would be surprised if he gets to play high major basketball.
