Will Ndiaye have a similar fate to Zhou Qi? It appears Mamadou Ndiaye declared for the NBA a season early, and some team would have to absolutely fall in love with his size to use a pick on him.
The much more likely situation is Ndiaye being signed after the draft at some point, possibly getting a chance in the summer league.
Mamadou Ndiaye put up solid numbers – 12.0 point, 7.3 rebounds, and 2.2 blocks per game. However, he played limited minutes on a UC Irvine team that ran a zone, and could not stay out of foul trouble.
