Basketball. Pro B: Kentan Facey joins Saint-Vallier

The SVBD has officially recognized Kentan Facey (2m06), a Jamaican pivot from Blois. He has just won the Pro B playoffs.

He had a stellar university career with Connecticut and won the NCAA title in 2014. In 2014, he started his professional career with Trikalla in the Greek first Division.

He will be playing in Cyprus next season with AEL Limassol. He joined Pro B in Souffelweyersheim in 2019 for two seasons. He was injured during the first half of the season and was forced to leave. In April 2022, he returned to Blois where he won the Pro B playoffs.

He is a mobile and vertical player and will bring all of his offensive and defensive skills to the SVBD. Philippe Namyst appreciated this reinforcement: "Kentan Fayy is coming to us from Blois, where he just won the Pro B playoffs. He is an extremely mobile and complete inside player. He is also a great rebounder and defender. He is also versatile, which allows him to excel both near the circle and at mid-distance.
