UConn’s Adama Sanogo Is Fasting for Ramadan and Leading His Team (Published 2023)

Sanogo, a 6-foot-9 forward, couldn’t eat before either of Connecticut’s last two N.C.A.A. tournament games, but against Gonzaga, he powered up at halftime.

One suggestion for UConn's coaches and trainers: Can Sanogo room with Samson Johnson for the next few days?

“I help make sure he eats,” Alleyne said. “But when he goes back to bed, he doesn’t turn off the light. So I’m like, ‘Yo, what’s up with that?’ He’s a bozo for that.”

lmao

Respect for Adama's commitment and discipline.

Forget where I read it, but someone mentioned the irony of the (mostly) Catholic Big East being repped in the Final Four by a public school team led by a practicing muslim.

Why?

Why?

So Alleyne can play on more than 3 hours of sleep.

I wonder if IVs are a loophole to hydrate him

 

[Connecticut13]

Why?

I'd imagine it's because they both need to wake up to eat - so maybe Alleyne can sleep undisturbed?

Then again -- Alleyne has been having some of his best games with little sleep apparently. So maybe we don't change a thing!

He saves a burrito bowl from Chipotle to eat right before sunrise?

We are lucky he is not on the toilet for the whole game.

I don’t think loopholes are part of the deal

Well what constitutes “fasting”? Does an IV? That’s what I’m asking.

In both Islam and Judaism, fasting does not allow for any form of hydration, including via IV. The only exception is for the sick, pregnant or frail.
