FORWARD | 201 cm (6’7) | 08-aug-2004

Ringo is a superb athlete with a very high ceiling. A versatile 3-and-D forward, he has solid offensive skills, can consistently knock down the three-point shot and finish strong at the rim. His length, mobility and athleticism allow him to defend multiple positions and impact the game on both ends of the floor. Still only 21 years old, he combines long-term upside with immediate versatility. Also has Cotonou eligibility.
