Adama Ndiaye is UCSB’s bruising glass-cleaner with reliable two-way value
In the 2025-26 season, Adama Ndiaye is giving UC Santa Barbara a steady frontcourt presence: 10.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game while shooting 49.4% from the field and 74.8% at the line over 31 games. He stands out for rebounding, rim protection, and efficient inside scoring rather than flash—more sturdy doer than headline hog. At 6-foot-9 and 235 pounds, he brings physicality, toughness, and veteran know-how, making him a strong fit for teams that want an interior anchor who does the dirty work.
