LOGAN — While Utah State guard Diogo Brito has excelled in his role as the Aggies’ sixth man this season, it turns out that the junior’s most critical position might actually be as a father figure to a 6-foot-11, 240-pound man.
“He knows everything; he knows a lot of things around here,” USU freshman center Neemias Queta said of Brito at a postgame press conference last week at the Mountain West Men’s Basketball Tournament in Las Vegas.
