Kentucky freshman Hamidou Diallo still has not made a decision on whether he will declare for the NBA Draft despite reports on Friday, his mentor Rob Diaz told ZAGSBLOG.
“No, the family and I will be meeting with him next week to make a decision on what he feels is best for him,” Diaz said. “Anything else out as of now is just a rumor.’

Diallo considered leaving for the NBA last year but then went back to school.
