Duquesne Guard Turned Pro Power Forward Dominating Overseas
Phillip Fayne, once a 4.6 PPG contributor for Duquesne Dukes as a guard (career stats via ESPN), has evolved into a 29-year-old post beast for Zielona Gora in 2025/2026, showcasing elite rebounding (5.9 RPG) and scoring (13.4 PPG) in FIBA Europe Cup 2024-25 with FC Porto. His differentiator? Resilient comeback from Adult Onset Still's disease that sidelined his senior year, bringing gritty intensity and versatility to the frontcourt—perfect for teams needing tough, high-motor bigs who battle on boards and stretch the floor.
