Why Abou left?

[Tom McKrackin]

If you ask me, it is because he saw them giving minutes to Sissoku and saw the writing on the wall.  Sorry, but when you hide the information from the fans you get speculation.  They always knew he was going portal and threw up a smokescreen.

So, you are speculating.

That's OK. The team didn't need that type of distraction during the tournament.

Agreed. I must say that I was really disappointed in how he handled Sissoko’s development. I do appreciate how he and the program kept it from being a distraction.

Players transfer all the time for a variety of reasons. I’m assuming best intentions unless I have reason to believe otherwise.  Wish him the best.

He was kind of soft anyway. Loved to miss an easy layup and we can clearly win without him. It'll be fine. Good luck to him.

I see Oklahoma State is in the NIT this year. Wonder if Abou Ousmane will choose to play in it this time…

I remember one game he has 30 pts and earns conference player of the week, the following game he has 0 points lol

Probably not since he is going into the draft.

Does anybody Know what happened to the kid from La Tech that was such a load? He played within the last few years.

Had a 42 point 14 rebound game his rookie year and 27 point 9 rebound 8 assists in a game last year, both for Grizzlies. Doesn't seem to get many opportunities though. My only guess is his size combined with playing style isn't what the NBA wants right now.
