Youssoupha "Yous" Mbao (born 16 April 1990) is a Senegalese basketball player with the Marshall University Thundering Herd men's basketball team of Conference USA in the United States.[1] He played as an amateur on the professional CB Gran Canaria of the Spanish ACB. Although he played some games with a professional team in Spain, Mbao himself was not paid and is still considered an amateur.
Mbao is known as one of the most promising young Senegalese basketball players.[2][3]
In April 2009, Mbao signed to play NCAA college basketball for Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Big East Conference). After one season at Marquette, Mbao transferred to Marshall. Due to NCAA transfer regulations, Mbao was forced to sit out the 2010-2011 season.[4]
