Class of 2026 C Abdramane Siby (Mali) COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE (4/15/26)

[TommyA13]

4 years at 4 different schools

Possibly, but I hope he’s here for all 4. Looks like he has a lot of potential

 

[23Zone]

I know these are highlight videos but that dude looks pretty impressive. Without a doubt extremely athletic. Would have liked to see a foul shot though lol.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Doesn’t look like some of the other string beans we’ve had. He’s actually coordinated.

 

[M2MPrinciples]

Love this get! Who is he?

 

[Nicknack]

Who knows how effective he will be in the ACC but man, I would have never thought he was a 7 footer by the way he moves on the court. Very impressive.

 

[hoopsupstate]

He reminds me of the guy who came off the bench for Virginia. He blocked shots and just dunked. This kid is a very smooth athlete. He should play a role on next year’s team.

 

[Red Holzman]

All the clips are of him dunking

He sees the court -there were some "Joker passes" in the clips that I really liked.
Made 3's, and...
81.5% from the free-throw line.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

I defy you to find someone on this board, other than a certain former poster's mother, that loves an international man of mystery being on the roster more than I do.

 

[TommyA13]

With this guy and Goodrick as our centers, I feel like we still have to get an actual starting center, no? Goodrick feels like a backup, while this guy will probably redshirt while developing.

Owen Freeman could be that dude, yeah?

Who redshirts anymore?

If we add Owen Freeman, it might balance out the skills at the center position.

Owen Freeman or Bukky Oboye would be my guesses as the last center. Bukky has a similar game to this guy.

 

[CuseBlock]

He looks smooth and decently twitchy. Get him some ham sandwiches and we’ll be in business.

 

[TommyA13]

Who redshirts anymore?

Maybe not redshirt, but I doubt he’s gonna get significant playing time this year.

Edit: I should’ve said start, as he’ll most likely get some playing time. He looks impressive and has obvious potential, I just hope he isn’t immediately starting.

 

[Caleb8800]

80% from the line is insane for a guy like him. Gives you hope for developing the rest of the offensive arsenal

 

[Orangezoo]

Maybe not redshirt, but I doubt he’s gonna get significant playing time this year.

I don’t know this isn’t Pascal we are talking about. Go watch Pascals tape in HS then watch this. This dude can move and seems coordinated.

 

[Noexcuse]

The importance of a competent point guard just got way more . . . important. Get this guy the ball within 10 feet of the basket and it's dunk city. And love the foul shooting percentage.

 

[TommyA13]

I don’t know this isn’t Pascal we are talking about. Go watch Pascals tape in HS then watch this. This dude can move and seems coordinated.

That’s fair, but I’m not sure how good of an idea it would be to immediately throw this guy to the wolves and have him get a lot of playing time.

 

[sufan59]

Oh man, I don't want to get too excited and this could be a funny comment to come back to in a year from now. But I think we hit the freaking jackpot!

 

[Newhouser]

These kind of signings are always worth it - assuming he didn't cost a ton of cash and if he pans out. Great.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Pay attention to players that Givony breaks the news on. Kid has talent, dont be quick to dismiss

 

[phil77]

Great measurables and looks like an above-average athlete. Great piece to try and develop. Like taking chances like this to fill out the bench. Can teach his size.

 

[Orangezoo]

That’s fair, but I’m not sure how good of an idea it would be to immediately throw this guy to the wolves and have him get a lot of playing time.

Yeah- this is the kind of signing we’ve seen other programs make and the guy is impressive immediately and we are asking why the hell we don’t do it lol.

Intriguing surprise in today's episode of COMMITTED TO SYRACUSE.
