What is Adou Thiero? Well, it’s TBD. The Leetsdale, PA native came to Kentucky as a 6-foot-4, 181-pound point guard. A three-star project piece with strong high school production — he averaged 23.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 3.9 steals and 2.3 blocks per game as a senior at Quaker Valley — the focus was on what he could be, not what he was then. He had grown nine inches between his freshman and senior seasons and was still sprouting up.
