Senior Guard with Pro-Level Length and Versatility
Felix Balamou is a 6-foot-4 senior guard from Conakry, Guinea whose calling card has long been athleticism, defensive versatility, and a competitive edge that coaches love; St. John’s described him as an explosive athlete with a fierce will to compete and an extremely versatile perimeter defender. In his St. John’s career, he showed he could make momentum plays in bursts, including a 20-point game against Xavier in 2016 and a 14-point, five-assist outing versus Fordham that highlighted his ability to impact both ends. He’s the kind of glue-wing who fits teams needing toughness, length, and energy more than pure shot-creation.
