And è beautiful", his words to the club’s official website.

So much desire to learn and do well in the EuroLeague, the tournament of the best: "C’è difference, physically, the speedè, everything changes to you have to adapt, but I am lucky enough to play every day in training with people who have been playing the EuroLeague for years. What they do in training è what you then also find in the game, like intensity;. Then here there’è Josh Nebo: if we talk about physicality; nobody beats him".

Diopè philosophy is clear: "For me the key è to improve mentally, to stay ready mentally before, during and after the game, becauseé today you can play twenty minutes, tomorrow five and another time zero. But you must always be focused and ready, you must not slip on trivialities; becauseé you are doing bad or you are doing good or not quite good. You don’t have to let those things affect you, but stay ready becauseé they can call you at any time. I am working on that”. He”ll probably be there in the Euroleague doubleheader that awaits Milan this week: on Wednesday; Red Star, Friday; Villeurbanne.
