Defending champion Paris Basketball (Betclic ELITE ProA) strengthened their roster with addition of 20-year old Senegalese ex-international 206cm center Mouhamed Faye for season 2025-26. Faye has played for the last two years at Unahotels Reggio Emilia in Italian Serie A. In 31 games he recorded 10.1ppg, 7.8rpg (#4 in the league) and 1.5bpg last season. A very spectacular season in his career as he was awarded Eurobasket.com All-Italian League Best Prospect of the Year and voted to Honorable Mention and League Player of the Week. He also played 15 games in Basketball Champions League where he averaged 6.8ppg, 4.9rpg and 1.2bpg. Faye helped them to make it to the quarterfinals.
The previous (2023-24) season he was tested by Reggio Emilia in Italy. He contributed to his team making it to the Italian Cup Semifinals. Great season indeed as he was awarded Eurobasket.com All-Italian Serie A Best Young Player of the Year and League Player of the Week.
