Syracuse's Towering Rim Protector Turned Pro Journeyman
The 7-2 Nigerian center anchored Syracuse from 2015-20 with career averages of 4.0 PPG, 4.9 RPG, and 1.7 BPG on 67.5% FG (per ESPN/Basketball-Reference), excelling as an elite shot-blocker and rebounder who thrived in Jim Boeheim's 2-3 zone. Post-college, he's showcased scoring bursts like 21 points in Australia's NBL1 (2022) and 5.4 PPG with 1.7 BPG on 62.5% FG in Denmark's BasketLigaen (2023-24). His length, efficiency, and motor make him a defensive anchor ideal for teams needing paint presence, though limited offensive polish keeps him a specialist.
