Dioum made an official visit to WVU on Aug. 30.
According to the Rivals Top 150 Player Rankings, Dioum is the No. 80 recruit in the 2026 class.
Dioum included WVU in his top six schools last month, joining Wake Forest, Illinois, Mississippi State, UNLV and Syracuse.
As the WVU roster stands, the front court will lose forwards Treysen Eaglestaff, Jackson Fields, Brenen Lorient and center Harlan Obioha after this season. That leaves just redshirt freshman center Abraham Oyeadier for 2026.
Dioum will play his final season at Bella Vista Prep in Arizona this year.
