One thing I am going to say right here and now... many of you (not all, but many) are sleeping on Hassan Diarra. I am telling you, if he improves half as much from now to next year as he did from last year to this one, he has the chance to be one of our two or three best players on the 2024-2025 and also go down as one of the best all-time to don a Husky uniform as well.

I, for one, was amazed at his level of improvement. And at 6'3" he was our 2nd best on-ball defender (only behind Steph, who was other-worldly good for a freshman by tournament time and is an obvious lottery pick). In addition, he shot 35% from 3, after shooting only 19% the year before. And as someone already noted in another thread, he was ranked #36 in advanced metrics.

And how many times did he come into the game in the 1st half and push up our energy and defensive guard play to a whole other level? At least a half dozen I can think of off the top of my head.

Watch out for Hassan...
