I'm interviewing Georges Niang at 2:30 - guys got any questions?

  • After Iowa State won the Big 12, a Cyclone made a wonderful offer to We Will that now increases our match. Now all gifts up to $400,000 between now and the Final 4 will be matched. Please consider giving at We Will Collective.

Obvious question is how is his recovery coming?
Does he expect to spend time in Indianapolis this season?
How does it feel to be the ISU GOAT?

What's the biggest difference between college ball and the NBA? What's been the most difficult adjustment he's had to make? What does he think he's improved on most since he was drafted? How does the rise of positionless basketball impact his approach and what he works on? Does he see himself as a stretch 4 or a small forward? What's the best/worst thing about spending time in the G League?

How long does he intend to try to make an NBA team? Last year didn't go very well, so has he been in contact with any Euro teams so he can actually make some $$?

Since he kind of ended up being close to that situation last year, what does he see as the benefits and drawbacks (from a player's perspective) of the new two-way contracts?

Does he think there's any difference in how one-and-done type rookies and 4-years-in-college rookies approach things when they get to the league?

Does he think it would've increased his NBA chances if he would've concentrated on learning to play defense while in college? I don't mean that in a snarky way, but most games, he didn't even try. Does he think he'd have a better chance of making the team if he was farther along defensively? Have any of his NBA coaches asked why he's so far behind in that area?

Is there a lesson to be learned by the younger Cyclones?

What do you plan to do once you are through playing?

Who are your favorite sportswriters and commentators?

Can he finally tell us the full story on the "somebody threw a ball at somebody for screwing around" story that CW keeps repeating? What happened and who threw at who?

Rank the cases for hanging the jersey -- #3, #11, and #31. :p
