Amu Saaka was a do-everything, first-team SoCon forward for Furman
Amu Saaka stood out at Furman as a high-motor 6-foot-6 forward who could score, rebound, and stretch the floor; in the 2010-11 season, he averaged 15.6 points and 6.5 rebounds while finishing with 987 career points and 237 career made free throws, both among Furman’s program leaders. He was described as an explosive athlete who could create offense in multiple ways, and his big-game profile included multiple 30-point outings and double-digit rebounding performances. If you want toughness, versatility, and a forward who affects winning on both ends, Saaka checked a lot of boxes.
