Fayemi brings size, defensive utility, and upside for Lafayette
Folabomi Fayemi is a 6-foot-4 guard for Lafayette whose 2025-26 role was still developing, but he logged 16 appearances, 6.1 minutes per game, 1.3 points per game, and 0.8 rebounds per game while flashing a season-high four points and a steal at Texas. He also earned a spot on Nigeria’s provisional D’Tigers roster, a strong signal that evaluators like his length, physicality, and two-way potential. At this stage he looks more like a developmental fit than a finished product, but the frame, pedigree, and international upside make him an interesting “bet on tools” guy.
