'Basketball is like a religion.' How the Brooklyn hoops scene shaped Xavier's Abou Ousmane

Xavier senior forward Abou Ousmane is comfortable so far living in Cincinnati, saying that it reminds him a lot of Denton, Texas.

If Ousmane brings the same production to Xavier that he had in Denton while at North Texas University, the Musketeers are in business. Ousmane was a double-digit scorer for the Mean Green in each of the last two seasons, averaging 10.7 points and six rebounds over 66 games. Ousmane entered the transfer portal after last season and committed to Xavier in April.
