Here's Sanogo going up against two legitimate 7 footers, one of them a Duke commit.
A great young player. Similarities to Yvan, this kid is wildly skilled for his (big) size. Much faster than I thought he'd be. Elite footwork and a fantastic left hand. He's a legit top 10 center.
Stat line: 26pts, 12rb, 1a (though he is a talented passer if you watch), 7 steals, 2 blocks.
Some video (22min) for your viewing pleasure: (I Hope we get him!)
Just some comments I found elsewhere:
“I picked UConn because it’s the best place for me,” Sanogo said. “I picked them because their coach uses their big man. I watched a lot of their games this year and I liked how they played their big men.”
Looking at his reasons for choosing UCONN, Adama Sanogo, may have a point.
