UPDATE: Illinois offers pair of 2020 point guards

CHAMPAIGN — Point guard will become a position of need for Illinois basketball in the 2020-21 season after Andres Feliz's graduation and Ayo Dosunmu's draft potential after his sophomore season. That's made 2020 point guards a major priority for the Illini as they try to assemble their next class.

Hassan Diarra and Shakeel Moore are the next targets. Both received an Illinois offer on Thursday. Diarra is a consensus four-star recruit and is ranked as high as No. 71 nationally in the 2020 class by Rivals, while Moore is a three-star prospect per 247Sports.

Diarra played this spring for PSA Cardinals on the Nike EYBL circuit.
