Louisville's Gorgui Dieng using his influence to keep Andrew Wiggins away from Kentucky?
Posted Dec 31, 2012
Everyone knows Louisville center Gorgui Dieng is one of the best defensive players in college basketball, and now he might be using his powers in a new way. The other day I spoke to Lesley Thomas, who was Dieng’s host mother when he was a senior at Huntington Prep in West Virginia. This year, Thomas and her husband, Scott, are housing Huntington Prep senior Andrew Wiggins.
