Diallo plays for Our Savior New American School in Centereach, New York, and is considered the 2nd best power forward and the sixth overall player in the 2015 class by 247 Sports Composite. And now, John Calipari and staff are calling. In the latest 247 Sports "Cats Confidential," Chris Fisher writes that both Calipari and Slice Rohrssen checked in on Diallo this week:

Our Savior New American School 5-star power forward Cheick Diallo. Both Calipari and Rohrssen called about Diallo this week.
