Aidan Igiehon to announce Friday

By ADAM ZAGORIA

Aidan Igiehon, the 6-foot-10 center from Lawrence Woodmere (NY) Academy and the Team Rio AAU program, will announce his college choice at noon on Friday at his high school, his high school coach told ZAGSBLOG.

Igiehon lists Louisville, Kentucky, Oregon and St. John’s among his final four. He visited Oregon and then tripped to Louisville, but cancelled his visit to St. John’s and never visited Kentucky.

Louisville coach Chris Mack visited Igiehon’s mother in her native Ireland, as did St. John’s assistant Matt Abdelmassih.

Louisville already has a strong 2019 class featuring point guard David Johnson, shooting guards Samuell Williamson and Josh Nickelberry, small forward Jaelyn Withers and power forward Quinn Slazinski. The Cards would love to add Igiehon to the group.

Lawrence Woodmere coach Jeff Weiss compares Igiehon’s body type to a young Amar’e Stoudemire or Dwight Howard.

“His upside and his physicality is unbelievable,” he said. “He’s got muscles on top of muscles and he’s very athletic. He jumps, runs, really athletic and his skillset is is pretty good for a guy that size. He’s big and strong. I compare him physically to Dwight Howard and Amar’e Stoudemire when they came out of high school.

“I think Aidan’s upside his enormous and if you know him, he’s a wonderful kid,” Weiss said.
