Bassirou, 21 year old hailing from Dakar and another product of our own TBS Academy, is another accomplished individual who migrated stateside in search of his american dream. At Marshalltown CC he has shown impressive versatility as a post player with mobility and skills to play as a wing, that made him a coveted basketball recruit.
