Historic Ivy League Star Now an NBA Free Agent
Bez Mbeng, the 6'4" Yale guard, is a **three-time Ivy League Defensive Player of the Year** and **2025 Ivy League Player of the Year** who led the NCAA in **triple-doubles** (2025 season) while averaging **13.0 PTS, 5.6 REBS, 5.8 ASTS, and 1.8 STLS**. Known for playing "Superman" and carrying Yale on his back to the 2025 NCAA Tournament, Mbeng’s **elite versatility** allows him to lead in points, rebounds, and assists simultaneously—a rare differentiator for a guard. His **intensity and defensive grit** (3 steals in the Princeton win) define his personality, making him a high-value fit for teams needing a **playmaking defender** who can control the game. After signing a 10-day contract with the Utah Jazz and later a free agent deal with the Golden State Warriors for Summer League, he is now an **unrestricted free agent** ready to contribute immediately [1][3][5][9][10].
