Notes

Pronounced Mah-Mah-DEE DEE-AH-NAY<br /> <br /> As a junior last season, Diane averaged 15 points and 8 rebounds per game. He averaged 7 offensive rebounds per game last year. <br /> <br /> Coach Mike Jones: "Mamadi's biggest asset is his athleticism. He's a very good athlete. He gets a lot of ooh's and ahh's from the crowd. The biggest thing he's improved is his outside shooting. When he first played for us as a sophomore, he shot only 20 percent from 3-point range. Last year he shot over 40 percent and that was from him busting his hump to improve. He's continuing to work on his ballhandling and defense."
