Last season, a freshman named Deandre Ayton put up 20.1 points, 11.6 rebounds and 1.9 blocks per game en route to becoming the No. 1 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. This season, a freshman named Lamine Diane out of Cal State Northridge is putting up similarly gaudy numbers: 24.2 ppg, 10.8 rpg, 2.2 bpg. Diane’s doing his damage with a significantly higher usage rate — second among all Division I players — but what he’s accomplished this season is truly remarkable. He became CSun’s new all-time leader in points and field goals made in a season two weeks ago, when CSun still had four games remaining on its schedule.
