CU men’s basketball target Assane Diop announcing college decision Tuesday afternoon

Four-star CU Buffs target Assane Diop is announcing his college decision Tuesday afternoon

About one week after the Colorado men’s basketball team signed a pair of elite 2023 prospects in Cody Williams and Courtney Anderson, the Buffs could be in line for another four-star commit when Assane Diop announces his college decision on Tuesday at 4:30 p.m. MT.

Diop is a local 6-foot-10 center at Accelerated Prep in Denver and he’ll be deciding between Arkansas, Seton Hall and Colorado. 247Sports has him as the No. 2 player in the state of Colorado, one spot behind Accelerated Prep teammate and Baye Fall, who’s announcing his pick between Arkansas, Rutgers, Auburn and Seton Hall also on Tuesday.

Accelerated Prep coach Mark Haynes told the Denver Post that he assumes the duo will stay together — either at Seton Hall or Arkansas — but we’ll see if that proves true on Tuesday afternoon.

Diop visited CU on Sept. 1 and was offered on Sept. 20.
