The Gambian contingent in the United States is slowly making progress, but a breakout player has not emerged yet. I have my hopes that Jassey would emerge as a consistent player, but we will have to wait a little longer and see what happens. Below is a summary of where they are and how they are doing.

Gallo Cham - Began the season starting 9 of 10 games. Averages 2.7 ppg and 5.0 rpg. The team (University of North Florida) holds a 2-20 record.
Amadou Sambou-Reclassed as a Junior; he is playing sparingly for Mt ZIon Christian Academy in North Carolina. Amadou self reported that FAMU and possibly NC State might be recruiting him.
