Illinois offers 2020 point guard

CHAMPAIGN — Point guard will become a position of need for Illinois basketball in the 2020-21 season after Andres Feliz's graduation and Ayo Dosunmu's draft potential after his sophomore season. That's made 2020 point guards a major priority for the Illini as they try to assemble their next class.

Hassan Diarra is the next target. The four-star 2020 point guard received an Illinois offer Thursday per Rivals.com's Corey Evans. Diarra is a consensus four-star recruit and is ranked as high as No. 71 nationally in the 2020 class by Rivals.

Diarra played this spring for PSA Cardinals on the Nike EYBL circuit.
