Catching Up with Ade Dagunduro

Former Husker standout Ade Dagunduro returned to Nebraska this week after spending the past two seasons playing in Europe. Dagunduro, who was back for former teammate Paul Velander's wedding on Saturday, spent the 2010-11 season playing in Belgium for the Leuven Bears. He averaged 12.1 point on 50 percent shooting, 5.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 2.1 steals per game in helping the team to a playoff appearance in his first season in the league. We had a few minutes to catch up as he visited the basketball office on Friday, and Ade talked about the experience of playing and living in Europe as well as his thoughts on the Huskers' first season in the Big Ten. Click on the video at the top of the article to hear from Ade.
