Baye Ndongo - College Basketball News & Rumors

Double-double propels Georgia Tech Ndongo notched 12 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 32 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 77-70 victory over Louisville.

Impact It was the second double-double of the 2025 calendar year for Ndongo and fifth overall of the 2024-25 season. The sophomore's strong two-way effort helped Georgia Tech pick up its best victory of the year, on paper, but the Yellow Jackets remain well on the outside looking in with respect to NCAA Tournament contention.

Monster two-way display Ndongo contributed 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-5 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and five steals over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 71-64 victory over Virginia Tech.

Impact Duncan Powell led the way for Georgia Tech in the scoring column, but Ndongo made his presence felt on both ends of the court, particularly on defense with his nine rebounds and five steals. Ndongo has been one of the most reliable, consistent players for Georgia Tech this season.

Strong two-way play Tuesday Ndongo logged 14 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals over 38 minutes during Tuesday's 70-59 loss to Clemson.

Impact The Yellow Jackets didn't have their best performance, but Ndongo found a way to remain fantasy-relevant with an excellent two-way display. Ndongo has four double-doubles this season, and this was the first time he accomplished that feat since Dec. 7.

JANUARY 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Efficient display Saturday Ndongo finished with 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block across 21 minutes during Saturday's 85-64 victory over Boston College.

Impact Ndongo hasn't been as dominant as expected in the glass, but he's been playing well of late as a scoring weapon. He's posted double-digit points in his last five outings, averaging 13.0 points per game and shooting 61.4 percent from the floor in that span.

Fills stat sheet Wednesday Ndongo provided 17 points (7-15 FG, 3-5 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 91-82 win over UMBC.

Impact Ndongo finished just one rebound shy of recording what would've been his fourth double-double of the season, but fantasy managers will be happy either way since Ndongo was impressive on both ends of the court. The lack of consistency is an issue, but he's been posting solid numbers in recent weeks. Over his last six games, he's averaging 12.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.0 assists and a combined 1.0 steals-plus-blocks per game.

DECEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Limited impact Sunday Ndongo logged four points (2-4 FG, 0-2 FT), five rebounds and one block across 19 minutes during Sunday's 71-60 loss to Northwestern.

Impact Ndongo was coming off a 19-point, 12-rebound effort in the loss to UNC on Dec. 7, and the big man was unable to repeat those numbers in another loss for the Yellow Jackets. Ndongo has been consistent despite the scoring woes for Georgia Tech, hitting double-digit points in seven of his 10 appearances so far.

NOVEMBER 28, 2024 • Associated Press

Comes close to double-double Ndongo amassed 17 points (8-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-3 FT), eight rebounds and one assist across 19 minutes during Wednesday's 91-67 victory over Charleston Southern.

Impact Ndongo hasn't been as dominant as one would've expected this season, but he continues to find ways to impact the game on both ends of the court. This game represented a bounce-back effort for the sophomore, who had only five points and six rebounds in the 81-58 loss to Cincinnati on Nov. 23.

NOVEMBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Limited impact Saturday Ndongo contributed five points (2-4 FG, 1-4 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 24 minutes during Saturday's 81-58 loss to Cincinnati.

Impact Ndongo had his worst outing of the season Saturday, and this was the first time he couldn't reach double-digit points. Still, one bad outing won't change his role as one of the Yellow Jackets' best players. He's averaging 13.6 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 0.8 blocks per game to open the campaign.

NOVEMBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Dominant once again Ndongo notched 19 points (5-10 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 8-10 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 33 minutes during Tuesday's 81-62 victory over Texas Southern.

Impact It's too early to draw conclusions, but Ndongo has been one of the most dominant players in the ACC over the first days of the season. His dominant display on both ends of the court should make him a sought-after player in most formats, especially since he's expected to have a prominent role in the Yellow Jackets' offensive scheme as well.

Puts up double-double Ndongo racked up 20 points (9-18 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Sunday's 105-93 loss to North Florida.

Impact Ndongo was Georgia Tech's go-to player on offense and responded with an impressive double-double, making his presence felt on both ends of the court. It's been just two games, but Ndongo has already racked up 30 points, 17 rebounds, seven assists and three blocks for the Yellow Jackets.

NOVEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Outstanding two-way play Ndongo totaled 10 points (3-5 FG, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and three blocks in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 85-62 victory over West Georgia.

Impact Ndongo was one of three Georgia Tech starters who scored in double digits, but he was also very productive on the defensive end of the court. Ndongo should be one of the Yellow Jackets' more consistent fantasy performers on a game-to-game basis and figures to play a sizable role on both ends of the court.

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to be sophomore star Ndongo is expected to be a star during his sophomore season with Georgia Tech, per Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Ndongo starring during his sophomore season would not be surprising, especially after a 2023-24 campaign that included him averaging 12.4 points and 8.2 rebounds for Georgia Tech. He was the 2023-24 Yellow Jackets' second best in scoring rate behind Miles Kelly, who has transferred to Auburn. Expected to remain Georgia Tech's primary center, he can be the best scorer and rebounder in 2024-25.

JULY 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Withdraws from NBA Draft Ndongo will withdraw from the NBA Draft and return to Georgia Tech for his sophomore season, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Ndongo will return with the Yellow Jackets after a successful freshman season and original intent to head to the NBA Draft. The 6-foot-9 center started all 29 games in the 2023-24 campaign, averaging 12.4 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.1 blocks on 27.8 minutes per game. His return should come as great news for the team, as he finished the season top two in average points, rebounds and blocks for Georgia Tech.

Sniffs double-double again Ndongo accumulated 10 points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-8 FT), nine rebounds, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 82-71 loss to Florida State.

Impact Ndongo had been playing very well in recent weeks, and the numbers back him up, as he's been a reliable two-way threat for the Yellow Jackets. In fact, he has scored in double digits while grabbing at least eight rebounds in each of his last five appearances. Ndongo will aim to continue that run when hosting Boston College on Saturday.

Ndongo helps Georgia Tech hold off Hawaii 73-68 in Diamond Head Classic semifinal

Freshman Baye Ndongo scored a season-best 22 points and grabbed 12 rebounds to help Georgia Tech hold off Hawaii 73-68 at the Diamond Head Classic

DECEMBER 23, 2023 • Associated Press

Shines at both ends Saturday Ndongo provided 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-3 FT), 19 rebounds, one assist and one block over 35 minutes during Saturday's 82-81 OT win over Penn State.

Impact Ndongo was impressive on both ends of the court, and his contributions were desperately needed as the Yellow Jackets had to play an overtime to get past Penn State by just one point. Ndongo needs to have more consistency, however, as he has scored in double digits in just two of his six appearances to date.

Stands out against Duke Ndongo chipped in 21 points (9-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists, four blocks and one steal in 27 minutes during Saturday's 72-68 win over Duke.

Impact The Yellow Jackets impressed Saturday and pulled the upset against Duke, and Ndongo was one of the players that stood out the most. He has made just three appearances this season after opening the year on the injured list, and maybe this is the game that will spark his breakout moving forward.
