Frenchie Sekou Doumbouya, who played in the NBA, should join the Maroussi club, which has just been promoted to the Greek first division. It’s not flashy, but provided that he finds pleasure and sensations.
A strange journey than that of Sekou Doumbouya. Great hope barely four years ago, the winger selected in 15th position in the 2019 NBA Draft by the Pistons will therefore try to relaunch in Greece, 10,000 kilometers from his American dream. These are our colleagues from BeBasket who broke the news. The agreement has been reached, all that remains is to sign.
Indeed, Sekou Doumbouya has not yet signed for Maroussi but an agreement has been reached between the two parties. The old prospect #NBA will therefore return to European basketball.

The man was however in the Green Room this evening in June 2019 where he heard Adam Silver pronounce his name in 15th position. But his adventure with Uncle Sam is not going to be the expected fairy tale. The beginnings were promising but injuries quickly piled up and franchises deplored his lack of professionalism. Sekou is tossed around in the G-League (where he will win the title in 2023) then signs a two-way contract with the Lakers who will cut him, take him back then cut him once more. In short, a complicated adventure.
Recently, Doumbouya was one of Monaco’s training partners. He should therefore now sign up for Maroussi, a Greek promotion who has just won the second division title. It’s not really what we expected for Sekou, but we would just like to see him play basketball and regain sensations. Maroussi will perhaps be the temple of his redemption, who knows.
