NEW YORK — Naofall Folahan is a 6-foot-10 basketball player from the African nation of Benin who before last summer had never heard of Bobby Hurley.
Folahan’s first introduction to Hurley, the former St. Anthony High School and Duke University point guard, came through the video game system Wii.
While in Baltimore with the Cecil Kirk AAU program, Folahan took an early-90s incarnation of Duke in the Wii game and beat Mouphtaou Yarou, his AAU teammate and now a rising sophomore at Villanova.
