Pat Kelsey added his 2nd recruit of the day yesterday as Long Beach State transfer Aboubacar Traore committed to the Louisville Cardinals. Traore led Long Beach State to the NCAA Tournament last year as a 6'5 195 pound small forward, while averaging 12 points, 8.4 points, and 4.5 assists, which also led the team. Traore also had a team high average in blocks while averaging 1.4 blocks and 1.3 steals per game, while also shooting a very efficient and high 51.4%.
Long Beach State transfer Aboubacar Traore is a Louisville Cardinal!

The 6-foot-5 forward averaged 12 PPG, 8.4 RPG, 4.5 APG this season. Not much of a perimeter shooter, but he is a difference-maker on both ends. Film doesn’t lie🤷🏻♂️

Kelsey added 2 players in Traore and Chucky Hepburn yesterday, and the Louisville basketball roster is really starting to come together at this point. Kelsey will likely add a few more players, but I would expect the roster to be nearly finished within the next few weeks.
