Navy has not had a player drafted by an NBA team since David Robinson in '87
His name means "The Chosen One" in Mandingo
Grew up playing soccer and didn't take on basketball until his Sophomore Season of HS
Began participating in hoop games at nearby YMCA in Manhatten every day after school. "Everybody trash-talks," he says of the games. "My English wasn't good enough yet to be trash-talking. So, I just played."
He can play immediately and once he is done playing professional basketball he'll have to serve his military time to the Senegal Army
