Mon Feb 24 201400:29Report: Knicks mull signing PF Ike Diogu
The Knicks may consider signing free agent PF Ike Diogu once they've officially waived Metta World Peace and Beno Udrih.
Diogu played for New York during the preseason and he's currently averaging 16.2 points and 8.2 rebounds in the D-League. Even if he does earn a 10-day contract to support the Knicks' frontcourt, there's no reason to consider him in any fantasy leagues. The New York Post floats a few more names as potential targets, including Earl Clark, Ben Gordon, Antawn Jamison and Granger, but that list sounds more like informed speculation than a report.

Sat Oct 12 201322:21Ike Diogu scores 21 pts to lead all scorers
Knicks big man Ike Diogu scored 21 points off the bench on Saturday to lead all scorers -- he made 6-of-11 FGs and 9-of-11 FTs, with eight rebounds.
If you're looking for a reason to ignore the boxscore for this game, here it is. Diogu scored two points in two appearances in 2011-12, he wasn't in the NBA last year, and he's not even certain to make the Knicks' roster this year. Reserve SG Toure' Murry was the Knicks' second-highest scorer with 16 points on 8-of-21 shooting.

Fri Sep 27 201321:43Knicks sign Ike Diogu to non-guaranteed deal
PF Ike Diogu was signed to a non-guaranteed deal by the Knicks on Friday.
Diogu was the No. 9 pick by Golden State in 2005 and hasn't played in the NBA for nearly two years. The team is looking for depth at backup center and we're guessing if Cole Aldrich's knees can hold up that he'll be that guy, and not Diogu or Josh Powell.

Ike Diogu scored 18 points off the bench in Tuesday's loss to the Magic, hitting 7-of-10 shots from the field to go with five rebounds and no other statistics in 22 minutes.

Thu Jan 20 201103:10Diogu quietly still playing well for Clips
Ike Diogu hit 5-of-7 shots for 10 points and six rebounds in 18 minutes off the Clippers bench on Wednesday.
He's played pretty well lately for the Clippers and at least deserves a look from owners in deeper leagues. But he won't become relevant as long as Blake Griffin can walk.

Ike Diogu had seven points and eleven rebounds in Sunday's win over the Lakers.
With the Clippers short staffed in the front court and Blake Griffin in foul trouble early, Diogu saw some extra run. He would have had an impressive line if he would have hit his shots (1-of-6 from the floor). As of now he doesn't hold much value but occasionally is capable of putting up big front court stats.
