Center Dame Salane has committed to join the Arizona State men’s basketball team this season, his manager told 247 Sports’ Dushawn London.
The 7-foot-1 Senegalese center appeared in 10 games for the Swiss Basketball League’s Lugano Tigers. He averaged 7.8 points on 56.1% shooting and 78.6% from the free throw line. He added 5.9 rebounds and 2.4 blocked shots across 27.5 minutes per game.
Salane marks the latest international commitment for the Sun Devils after center Mor Massamba Diop signed on last month.
