Former UConn men's basketball player Youssouf Singarè joins Wagner, set to return to Storrs
Singare, who played sparingly during two seasons at UConn, will face his former team when Wagner visits the Huskies on Nov. 9.
Former UConn basketball player Youssouf Singare is set to rejoin his alma mater, Wagner, ahead of the 2024-25 season. The 6-foot-10 center, originally from Mali, was a top-150 prospect according to 247Sports Composite rankings. After a disappointing stint at UConn, where he only played 87 minutes over two seasons, Singare transferred to High Point and averaged 7.8 minutes per game in the 2025-26 campaign.
Despite struggling with turnovers and foul issues, Singare still managed to contribute in two NCAA Tournament games, including a Round of 64 upset over No. 5 Wisconsin. Wagner head coach Tajae Jones, a native of Waterbury, CT, and former Fairfield player Cam Estevez will also join the team for the November 9 game at Gampel Pavilion, marking a return for Singare to Storrs after his brief tenure with UConn.
