He's Dunleavy's replacement, but at 6'8" |
Diogu is a power forward and projects as such in the NBA, unless he miraculously develops quickness and athleticism to play the 3.
On the other hand, if the rumors are true -- that Dunleavy Senior wants to trade for Junior -- would they play Diogu alongside Troy Murphy?

Dunleavy Junior going to the Clippers is really being considered only if they can't resign SF Bobby Simmons... Mullin is doing a lot to pump Mike Dunleavy up to make him more tradeable, but the performance of Pietrus and the likely relatively large contract demands of Dunleavy, has already sealed his exit... The GSW have time, so if something happens, it will probably be closer to the trading deadline. But if the GSW are going to get hosed, I'd be fine just keeping him. He never complains about riding the pine.
Diogu as a 3 is actually realistic, as the frontline is rather fluid... 3 forwards, 1 center and 2 forwards, 1 forward and 2 guards... etc. I think everybody will be trying to copy Phoenix' small ball strategy next season, so Diogu as a 3 even moreso

The Golden State assistants were quoted as discussing what Diogu will bring to the interior.
