a 6'11 freshman frontcourt project with international upside
Bukinga is a 6'11, 235-pound freshman forward for Drake who brings rare size and a clear developmental ceiling rather than polished box-score production right now. His profile suggests a classic fit for teams that value length, rim protection potential, and long-term upside in the frontcourt, especially given his background from Goma, DR Congo and his path through DME Sports Academy. The key question is not immediate scoring volume, but how quickly his frame, mobility, and defensive instincts translate to high-major-level impact.
