Mamadou had 30 points, despite playing a lot of the second half with a hurt knee.
That does not sound very encouraging ,but i would love to be wrong and see this guy play in the NBA.

If he makes it to the NBA, he'll be the second Mamadou N'diaye to play in the league. Who would've thought..

This kid is gonna be a lottery pick if he improves his skills, agility, and if he stays healthy. He's only 17 yrs.old. He might grow to 7'7'-7'8" when he's done growing.

Can you imagine if the Rockets draft this kid? He's gonna be train by Hakeem Olajuwon, Kevin Mchale, and possibly Yao Ming if he permanently lives in the US.

He's gonna be paid Millions of dollars by an NBA team because of the lack of quality centers in todays NBA.

This kid can date some tall chicks from the WNBA.

That's trippy as hell. Wasn't there a scrub that played for the Raptors with the same name and spelling back in the early 00's? :wtf:

Is he the son of Mamadou N'Diaye?

He played in the NBA for a few years and he was about 7'0 as well.

I had the picture too in my post.

My first thought was I cant believe this dude is pretending to be a HS player now after his career ended. :roll: :roll: :roll:

Now I'm wondering if thats his son.

Doubt it. N'Diaye is the most popular name in Senegal.

N'Diaye is no more unique than Joe Johnson, John Williams, Steve Smith,etc.....here in America.

He dunks much more easily than Yao did, probably due to his arm-length, which Yao never had...however I don't think his body is nearly durable enough, he's already struggling to run in that clip.

I know he is way bigger than the average person but those guys on the other team looked like midgets. The guys at the start of the vid on his team looked like a big guy and it didn't look that weird but those other guys looked so small and scrawy.

The dude literally jumps 2 inches off of the ground to dunk it. And :oldlol: at his put-back dunk attempt.

he looked like he wasn't even serious. He was dominating effortlessly.

Nash

Man that looked so funny. Dude was playing with kids.

Also, was I the only one who thought that looked so much fun? Just stand there around the basket and dunk on people. I'd try to go for 100 points each game.

Yeah and the one from the Raptors and this kid look nothing alike and are clearly from different tribes. I can even tell that. It blew my mind when I was in Kenya this year that they can always tell what tribe everyone else if from just by looking at them.

Yes cause we're very familiar with common west African names. Of course.

I've seen a couple other videos of him playing.

He has no instincts or reaction time at all. There's a reason why that video doesn't show him contesting/blocking shots or rebounding. His reaction time is so scarily slow, it was hard to watch. I think he's slow, you know? Some rebounds in other videos would literally be in his chest before he reacted to it.

He'll have fun but he'll never make the NBA. NBA is a beast his body and mind couldn't conquer. After he's done growing basketball itself might be too hard for him.

He's gotta be careful. Body preservation is much more important than chasing a dream.
