Ready for a basketball earthquake in Dubai? Canadian giant Mfiondu Kabengele, who dominated the EuroCup last season as the best rebounder with an average of 9.7 boards per game and an impressive 15.4 points, has just signed a two-year contract with a club from the United Arab Emirates! Yes, you read that right — Dubai’s eighth signing is a man who posted nearly identical stats in Italy: 15.2 points and 9.8 rebounds per game.
Kabengele is no stranger to the big stage — he has played for the Los Angeles Clippers, Cleveland, Boston, and AEK, and now he’s decided to bring his rebounding prowess to Dubai. The club has already signed names like Aleksa Avramović, Dženan Musa, McKinley Wright, Kenan Kamenjaš, Mamadou Jaite, Dwayne Bacon, and Justin Anderson. Is this the start of a new basketball era in the UAE or just another flashy attempt to make a splash?
What’s certain is that Kabengele brings brutal energy under the basket and will be a nightmare for opposing teams. With nearly 10 rebounds per game in the EuroCup, he’s the true king of the boards. Dubai clearly isn’t skimping on reinforcements and wants to build a team to remember.
Just imagine — eight new players, including the best rebounder in the EuroCup! Will that be enough for Dubai to shine on the basketball map? Or will it all end up as another collection of expensive names without real results?
Either way, Kabengele is here, ready to jump, score, and dominate. What about you? Ready to follow this basketball drama? Or think it’s just another marketing stunt? Drop a comment and let’s see who’s in and who’s out!
