Summary

Moussa has a live body that runs the floor well in transition, competes on the offensive boards, and finishes well in and around the lane. He also has a decent shooting stroke from the mid-range in face-up situations. He needs to improve his feel as he throws his body around, which leads to fouls and bad shots. He also doesn't rebound at a very high clip which is disappointing considering his size and activity.

Notes

Nike EYBL - Emerson, GA - 4/27/2019 


Sleeper! He looks like a professional basketball player. He runs the floor very well, can knock down an open 15ft jumper. Can score in the post, has an array of moves on the block with soft touch. Can also finish in traffic and loves to challenge shots at the rim. 


NBPA Top 100 - Charlottesville, VA - 6/11-14/2019 


Extreme upside, runs the floor well, rebounds on both sides of the ball can guard on the interior and perimeter, great footwork on the post. 


Memphis Hoopfest - Memphis, TN - 1/3-4/2020 


Struggling a bit to start the game seems to be rushing his shot. He is still running the floor well, rebounding and defending multiple positions. Gets off the ground quickly for his first make of the game. 


Basketball without Boarders Global Camp - Chicago, IL - 2/14-16/2020 


Rebound push in transition drop off for layup attempt. Nice patience on the block as he gets in to the body of his defender gets him in the air and finishes off the glass.

Coming Soon...

Offers

Diabate is surprisingly, utterly terrible when guarding outside of his position, ranking in just the 7th percentile of bigs. He fouled frequently and allowed opponents to shoot 53% from 2. He rarely forced turnovers and gave up many open 3s.

This data was hand-tracked by AJ Wahl and Bryon Cook. Every single defensive possesion of each player's season was analyzed. This dataset includes all possessions when the defender is guarding on-ball, in man-to-man, and against a player not within their position group who shoots the ball, is fouled, or commits a turnover. The percentile listed above is a players standing compared to their postion group calculated by compliling and weighing various different metrics derrived from the hand-tracked data. This data only measures a portion of a player's impact, but it is clear that the ability to defend out of one's position group is a vital skill to contributing to winning basketball at the professional level.
