Brandon Rahbar: Sam Presti on Ousmane Dieng: "He had some great moments for us this year in real rotation minutes. Minutes he could not have provided the year before. He was one of the youngest players in that draft class. We knew this was going to take some time.. He was contributing to winning. He's on the right track. His biggest change is his body. He's really changed his body."
