Summary:
Biram Faye has opened some of the eyes of NBA scouts for his play in the 2018 NBA Global Camp, and he also played very well in the 2018 Ciutat De L’Hospitalet Tournament.
Still, he has not played at the highest levels of basketball yet, and he may need to show that he can fare well against elite competition. But if he has a solid season this year, he could project to be an energetic defensive specialist type of player in the NBA.
