Would like to thank my friends and family for the opportunities they have given me. Would also like to thank all the coaches that have helped me along the way. With that being said I have 1000% committed to the university of North Dakota ‼️‼️‼️ @UNDmbasketball pic.twitter.com/2dZWNp5ZgK

Ndoukou also suited up for Leicester Riders on occasion in the BBL this season as well as playing for Loughborough Riders in NBL’s Division 1.

“I’m really happy to commit to North Dakota,” he said, via release. “I’ve had several conversations with Coach Sather and liked what he had to say about the school and the team.

“It’s been a dream of mine to be playing in America and I’m grateful for this opportunity. I can’t wait to get started.

“I’d like to take this opportunity to thank my coaches and support staff at the Riders programme for their support.”

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
