The eagles landed their third basketball commitment for the 2010 class, as Papa Samba Ndao committed to BC today. The Senegalian forward attends the prestigious Montverde Academy in Florida and chose the eagles over SMU and TCU.
The 6'8" wing has amazing athleticism and potential (check his ESPN scouting report) Reports say that he is very quick and an excellent defender. At the moment, Ndao is more of a perimeter player. He has a good jump shot and his range extends past the 3pt. line. In order to become more effective in the paint, Ndao will need to add on a lot more muscle and also work on his low post moves. His immediate impact will probably be his superb ability to rebound, both offensively and defensively. Papa Samba Ndao certainly has some work to do before he starts to become a major contributor, but his athleticism, length, and overall potential should have eagle fans very excited.
