Possible Landing Spots for Alex Oriakhi
Posted Apr 3, 2012
Despite an off year as a junior at UConn, 6-9, 240-pound Alex Oriakhi appears to be in high demand. Adam Zagoria of Zagsblog.com writes that Oriakhi "is considering visiting North Carolina, Duke, Washington and Gonzaga, a source close to the situation told SNY.tv. "Carolina is losing frontcourt players Tyler Zeller, John Henson and Harrison Barnes to the NBA, while Duke will lose senior Miles Plumlee and possibly Mason Plumlee, a junior," Zagoria reported over the weekend.
