Philippe-Andre N'Dia '20 Recruiting Profile

I would like to play collegiate basketball at the highest possible level. I love the game of basketball and I have had this dream since the start of high school. I would be a good candidate for your team by not just bringing skills, but also leadership and energy on and off the court. I’m different from other recruits because I’ve been living in the Ivory Coast for the past seven years and went to school at the International Community School of Abidjan. My unique experience has helped me to be a leader in my community and has helped me have a better cultural mindset of the world. I have now moved back to Lexington, Kentucky for my senior year, and after making this tough decision with my family, I’m looking forward to finishing the year strong athletically and academically with perseverance and determination.
