Auburns basketball team is making waves with the addition of French center Narcisse Ngoy, a high-upside talent reminiscent of Shaq. The team, already boasting international flair, faces Illinois State in the NIT semifinals. The trend of overseas pros joining college teams is on the rise, with Final Four squads like Illinois and Arizona featuring international players. While this shift may squeeze out some U.S. high school kids, the pressure to win is driving teams to seek talent globally. Auburn is betting on global gems like Ngoy to secure a spot in the tournament.
