Djessira Diawara brings size, rebounding, and veteran production to Fresno State
In the 2025-26 season, Djessira Diawara gives Fresno State a sturdy 6-foot-3 forward who already proved she can rebound, defend the glass, and score efficiently in the Mountain West. She averaged 8.0 points and 6.1 rebounds in 2024-25 at San Jose State, ranked 10th in the conference in rebounds, and posted 14 double-figure games with a season-high 22 points. The appeal is her rugged, high-motor frontcourt presence: experienced, physical, and productive without needing the ball run through her. If a team wants a dependable glue forward, she fits the bill.
