Developing 6-10 Forward Working Through Early-Career Adversity at LIU
The 6-10 forward is a true freshman prospect still finding his footing after missing nonconference play due to a hand injury during the 2025-26 season. While his current production is modest (1.5 PPG, 1.8 RPG in 15 games), Ndiaye shows potential as a rim-running big with a 6-point career-high and solid rebounding activity. His size and athleticism are differentiators, but he's clearly in development mode. Best suited for programs prioritizing long-term upside and willing to invest in a young player's growth trajectory rather than immediate impact.
