Athletic 6-5 forward still carving out a role for UMBC
Alpha Chibambe is a 6-5, 210-pound sophomore forward for UMBC who has shown flashes of rim pressure, transition juice, and glass-work in limited minutes, including a 2024-25 season line of 1.8 points and 1.5 rebounds per game across 20 appearances. His best selling point is upside: he brings length, energy, and the kind of bench spark coaches love, even if the scoring efficiency and perimeter shot are still developing. If you need a projectable athlete with size and competitive bite, he’s interesting; if you need an immediate volume scorer, not quite yet.
