On Friday 3/4* PF Baye Ndongo has committed to the Yellow Jackets. He becomes the first incoming freshman to commit to Georgia Tech under Damon Stoudamire. Ndongo originally verbally committed to Rutgers, but his primary recruiter was Karl Hobbs who joined Georgia Tech’s staff last month. Hobbs was able to convince Ndongo to join him. Baye grew up playing soccer in Senegal, but was convinced to start playing basketball in the US when he was 14. He played for Team Senegal in the U19 World Cup in 2021 and put up some decent stats.
I’m pretty excited about this pickup.
