Interesting that this has not been reported anywhere else. Seems like another raw but potentially high ceiling guy.

"Rhode Island recently offered Ntambwe. Rams head coach Dan Hurley is deeply tied into Ntambwe's people, having known Ntambwe's legal guardian Dave Caputo for over 20 years."

Don't really understand why PC would be the obvious leader unless Cooley was the only coach in the country recruiting him over the past year.

Sounds like Iverson.
I've heard this name come up a lot lately. Don't underestimate Moore as a recruiter.

Interesting that PC was considered the favorite by somebody and they aren't even mentioned on this tweet.

Most likely it is because PC has now signed two players that could be perceived to fill a similar need (Nichols and Monroe).
It's funny that kids want to hear that college teams would like to play a position-less, Golden State type offense, but then they eliminate teams that have signed a guy that they think plays their position.

We need to Ntambwe that he can play some point forward for us. This would be a great use of that 5th scholarship.

Are we still in pursuit? He would be a nice addition to the current group.

From what I have read and heard from a few people , I’m not too sure what this kids academics are going to look like, I think we’ll be seeing some odd schools get involved

UCLA offered I saw on twitter
