Mamadou Ndiaye isn’t like your normal everyday high school student. Standing at 7’5, it’s safe to say Ndiaye sticks out in the crowd. The high school JUNIOR is taking high school basketball by storm in the state of California. With his incredible length, he is almost impossible to guard.

According to Jon Bahnsen, his coach from Breathern High School in Huntington Beach, California, Ndiaye will be on the fast track to the NBA based on his size alone.

“Right now his game is basically catch, turn, drop-step, dunk. But this kid’s going to play professionally someday. The minute Mamadou enrolled I became a much better basketball coach.”

I can’t even imagine facing a player like Ndiaye at the high school level. Judging by this video, the kid is very raw, but with the proper development and coaching, Ndiaye could reach his NBA dreams to clog the lane at the very least. Needless to say, colleges around the country have to be licking their chops. Especially, if the kid is STILL GROWING!
