Scouted on May 29-31, 2010 @ Best Buy Classic
Deji did a good job playing with energy even though his team was powering through a couple of games in a matter of hours. He scored the ball in a variety of ways today and his shot was falling to go with his slashing ability. His shot still doesn’t look clean but we’re hoping that it is more consistent as the summer approaches. His athleticism allows him to finish above the rim and with authority. Defensively Deji will get after it and is a willing and able defender on the perimeter, using quick feet and look arms to keep shooters or drivers honest. TBR Rating: LM

Deji displayed his impressive athleticism for the second straight week but didn’t have the jumper going like he did in the Hall of Fame Classic. He shortarms his jumpers a bit, and they can come out of his hands in off ways. Deji also needs to learn when to take over games, as there are times when he doesn’t dominate competition like he should. Still put together some great stretches and is one to watch for low-major programs.

Has improved and polished up quite a bit since the high school season. Deji is a big-time athlete who can finish above the rim and is improving his shot. Scored mostly out of the flow of the offense, but also showed an ability to breakdown defenders when a play was needed from him. TBR Rating: LM+

Scouted on December 19, 2009 @ Rich Central v Lincoln-Way East (Shootout at the Hill)
Adedeji is a good athlete and proved he can jump with an alley-oop off a set play.  He can get to the hoop off the bounce and can hit the three.  A nice player, but only finished with 7 points tonight.
