An international student from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, 2024 center Flory Bidunga arrived in the United States just 10 months ago. He made his Kokomo (IN) High School in November, where he averaged 17.5 points, 13.3 rebounds and 5.3 blocks per game while leading the Wildkats to a 20-8 record and a run to the Indiana Class 4A Final Four.
That was just high school. When the spring rolled around, the 6-foot-9, 230-pound center exploded on the adidas 3SSB circuit with Indiana Elite (16U), showing off his explosiveness, interior scoring and defensive tools against the best of the best in his age group.
