Bueno Arenas Albacete Basket (LEB Silver) confirmed experienced 38-year-old Senegalese ex-international center Bamba Fall (215cm-107kg-1986, college: SMU, agency: Players Group) for the new 2024-25 season. He is the second foreign player in the roster, with Serbian Vuk Stevanic signing earlier. Fall played for Melilla Ciudad del Deporte in the previous (2022-23) season, where he averaged 6.3ppg, 5.6rpg, and 1.6bpg in 27 LEB Silver games.
In 2010 (a year after his graduation) he was drafted by Reno Bighorns (D-League) as the #1 pick overall.
He graduated from Southern Methodist University in 2009 and it'll be his 16th (!!!) season in pro basketball. He was a member of Senegalese Senior National Team back in 2007.
Fall is a very experienced player. He has played in seven different countries on three different continents (Europe, Asia, and North America). Fall has played professionally in Estonia (Kalev/Cramo and Tallinn Kalev), Iran (Azad), Israel (Hapoel Gilboa Galil), Kosovo (Prishtina), Latvia (VEF Riga), Spain (Coviran Granada, Alicante, and Zunder Palencia), and NBA G League (Stockton Kings and Maine Celtics).
Fall's team made it to the LEB Oro Play-Off Semifinals in 2022. It's very possible he may end his playing career at Albacete.
as a man who walks a fine line between confidence and arrogance. His demeanor can shift drastically during high-pressure situations.
A tall and lanky player with great upside. Has a very skinny body, but plays hard and understands the game. Rebounds and shot-blocking are his best skills, but he should add a reliable shot and beef up a lot more.
