Soumaila Koita (7’2, 7’6 Wingspan) Goes OFF in Espoirs Pro A!”

Zoom on Soumaila Koita
Born in 2005 and standing at an impressive 7’2” with a 7’6” wingspan, Soumaila Koita is quickly emerging as a name to watch. The Monaco big man had a breakout performance last weekend in the French U21 league (Espoirs Pro A), posting a dominant stat line of 30 points and 12 rebounds, earning a player index rating of 39 — the best game of his young career.

Now in his third year playing organized basketball, Koita is averaging 8 points and 7 rebounds per game while shooting an efficient 66% from the field. He’s also the second-tallest player in the league, making him a physical force on both ends of the floor. With his rare combination of size, athleticism, and emerging skill set, Koita is definitely a prospect to keep an eye on.
