The drive gave him a chance to show off the light feet at 7-foot-1 that have helped him become a sleeper NBA Draft prospect, even if a longer-term one.
The dunk capped off a hot start for the Sun Devils that gave them an early 11-4 lead.
The 30-point loss at Houston on Sunday was the first time Diop did not have at least 15 points since Dec. 6 (18 points per game on 69.6% shooting in eight contests during that span).
