$Signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Hornets in February of 2026.
Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary
A multi-sport athlete growing up -- including soccer, rugby and track and field -- Tosan Evbuomwan didn't start playing competitive basketball until he was 14 years old. He began generating buzz while attending the Deng Camp run by former NBA player Luol Deng. After seeing footage of Evbuomwan, Princeton coach Mitch Henderson recruited him. Evbuomwan started 19 of 25 games as a freshman, and his sophomore 2020-21 season was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Becoming a full-time starter as a junior, Evbuomwan was named Ivy League Player of the Year behind 16.0 points on 54.1 FG%, 6.7 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.4 steals in 30.0 minutes. As a senior, he made the All-Ivy First Team behind 15.1 points on 52 FG%, 6.3 rebounds and 4.9 assists in 31.4 minutes. He also won Ivy League Tournament Most Outstanding Player as Princeton won its conference tournament. Evbuomwan played point forward in college, primarily from inside the three-point arc. He's an old-school, bully-ball forward with polished driving and post moves, though he's athletic enough to get out in transition, too. He led Princeton in both points and assists as a senior. He's not a jumpshooter. Defensively, he might be between positions in the NBA -- too small for centers and too slow against wings. Evbuomwan is a unique prospect, and there aren't many historical NBA comparisons. However, due to his passing ability at his size and paint-tilted scoring arsenal, he shares similarities to players like Ben Simmons, Bam Adebayo, Boris Diaw and Thaddeus Young. To begin his career, he could be utilized as a possession user off the bench. Typically, those types of players are guards, but Evbuomwan may be able to fill that role as a crafty, paint-focused forward.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Solid Summer League
FDetroit Pistons
July 20, 2023
Evbuomwan started three Summer League games for Detroit, averaging 7.0 points and 4.0 rebounds while shooting 50.0 percent from the field.
ANALYSIS Evbuomwan posted 4:3 AST:TO, which signified a different role and usage for the 22-year-old after he averaged 4.9 assists per game in his final season at Princeton last year. At 6-foot-7, Evbuomwan is a jumper away from being a coveted offensive player. Across three collegiate seasons, he attempted just 66 total threes -- connecting on 25.8 percent. Defensively, he might lack the physicality to be a plus-defender in the frontcourt, but the foundation to develop into a rotation player is present.
