The Senegalese native played for the Winchester Knicks in the 2016-17 season, averaging 14.7 points and 6.8 rebounds in 27.7 minutes per game.

UNICS head coach Dimitris Priftis:
– Losing Kostas Kaimakoglou to injury forced us to find a new player. We chose Maurice Ndour because we believe he fits our system on defense and on offense. Maurice is a player with a big future. He’s physically prepared and can play several positions. He’s at the beginning of his European career and has a big future ahead of him.
