Some of the guys that will be on the Nigerian national team. Not sure how the trials work/if Aminu will get to meet them and pick their brains, but worth keeping an eye on ? Aminu was invited to try out for the Nigerian olympic team this June

Getting the chance to test his game against established pros will only help him continue to develop.

I noticed the article said Georgetown "signee". Anyone know if this is true?

I noticed the article said Georgetown "signee". Anyone know if this is true? As far as I know, he hasn't signed yet. I feel like it would've been promoted at least somewhat by either Aminu or Shawn Harmon. And when the rest of the class signed in the Fall, Georgetown posted about it on their social media. I think the next signing day is some time in April FWIW

His inclusion on this roster and be named a McDonald's All-Amerucan suggests that he is the real deal. Yet I dont know what skills he bring to the table...a little bit of everything and he's a scorer?

Can shoot well enough to keep defense honest. Lockdown defender.

Yaboy, if you can find links to any more of the Aminu segment.. please do. Well, I guess you already would have if you did. Anyway THANK for that link. He does look like a really impressive young man. Is it NOVEMBER yet? 21/22 season! Gonna be a good one

The piece was nicely done. Talks about his Nigerian roots and how he realizes the opportunity basketball affords him. Aminu came across as humble, motivated, and someone who responds to being pushed. No Georgetown mention beyond it showing him committed to us.
