My mistake on Dioubate’s length. Well over seven feet, but not 7-5. I was given the same wingspan on both Dioubate and Quaintance. My mistake.

At 6-foot-7, Mouhamed Dioubate can defend the post. His good feet allow him to make a quick first jump without loading. His wingspan lets him get to the ball after the shooter leaves the floor. @KentuckyRivals https://t.co/VNNI0bpRm6

Mouhamed Dioubate is all about defense & he has a ton of versatility. He has strength and length to defend the post. Then he’s got the light feet and quickness to switch onto a guard. He also had seven double-digit rebound games last season. @KentuckyRivals https://t.co/16tvwbDEsZ

I realize this was uncontested, and Mouhamed Dioubate is not an elite playmaker. However, he will push the ball in transition with the full court dribble. Dioubate adds muscle to Kentucky, but he will also allow them to run the fast break. @KentuckyRivals https://t.co/I5OEMWxTSw

In golf we say, “Swing your swing.” It might not be pretty, but if it works ride with it. Mouhamed Dioubate shot 46.2% from three last year, but they’re not in bulk. It’s strictly open catch and shoot. But the push shot with the low release works in space. @KentuckyRivals https://t.co/Po0AQKLvKi

Even at 6-7, 215 pounds, Mouhamed Diabate can run like a deer. He’s downhill in a full court sprint. 21% of his scores last season were in transition. @KentuckyRivals https://t.co/p2KiOcdet5

Mouhamed Dioubate had intended to set a flare screen at the top, but instead ends up in position to cut in concert with the baseline drive. 11% of his scores were off the cut. Once again, he is a high level finisher at the rim. @KentuckyRivals https://t.co/1rFZ2anl4O

Mouhamed Dioubate is excellent in the pick & roll. Once again, excellent feet & technique. Screens & reverse pivots, then makes an aggressive cut. Has good agility to slide by the help at the rim. @KentuckyRivals https://t.co/ztDNpbQ2GK

A couple of things are quietly noticeable about Mouhamed Dioubate. He’s got great feet, and he’s effective in the pick & roll game. 82% of the shot attempts were at the rim last year. He finished those shots at a 63% clip. Nifty Eurostep into the off hand. @KentuckyRivals https://t.co/eBi7pQfAY1

RT @HeelIllustrated: Nobody breaks down a player's film quite like our @CoachDavidSisk, and he here dives into #UNC transfer Jarin Stevenso…

First, good work AJ.

Multiple sources very close to the situation have confirmed to THI that Jordon Hudson has not been banned from #UNC's football factilities, contrary to published reports. Story...... https://t.co/eiQH9IrbOi

Jalen Montonati is one of the top shooters & most skilled players in the 2026 class. So naturally he sees Mark Pope’s system as a very attractive fit. ⁦@JalenMontonati⁩ ⁦@MokanBasketball⁩ https://t.co/6jaoAcdwMD

In the last clip Jarin Stevenson knocked down a three from the same top to top pass. That makes the D guard him. He’s good at getting the first step & driving. This is an impressive for a 6-10 with perimeter skills. @HeelIllustrated https://t.co/6nA4jcvxiU

Jarin Stevenson was involved in lots of second side action away from and off the ball. He’s quick enough, so should see more on-ball looks at North Carolina. He isn’t a prolific 3-pt shooter, but he does this well enough to keep the defense honest. @HeelIllustrated https://t.co/Cw3mKlrZRt

Toni Bryant has followed Kentucky for years, and he tells CI that he already knows everything about the program. Naturally he was excited to see Alvin Brooks III drop by to see him recently. ⁦@the_Tonibryant⁩ https://t.co/PFfHahRpbh

Jarin Stevenson has a quick 1st step that can get him to the rim or set up a drive, draw, & dish situation. He had two really nice kick-outs at the rim vs. North Carolina after he drew backside help. @HeelIllustrated https://t.co/8J4RxiYLzN

Jarin Stevenson’s defensive versatility allows him to switch onto any position. This time he does his work in the post after he switches off RJ Davis onto Ven-Allen Lubin. He protects the rim from guard penetration from the low block. @HeelIllustrated https://t.co/rLDgQseQOg
