Rutgers veteran with size, rebounding, and international polish
Malick Koné is a 6-foot-5 Rutgers forward from Conakry, Guinea who brings veteran experience, length, and a blue-collar edge that coaches usually love in a role wing. In his Rutgers career, he appeared in 96 games and totaled 257 points and 206 rebounds, showing he could impact the game without needing the ball piled into his hands. He also spent time with the Guinea senior national team and was known as an academic and team-first presence, which adds real off-court value. If your team wants a mature, physical, multi-year contributor rather than a flashy stat-sheet hog, he fits the bill.
