NBA Academy Africa:
Ighovodja, who began playing competitive basketball just four years ago at age 14, has the physical tools to be a force in college basketball with a wingspan measured at 6-foot-10 and a 39-inch vertical... Ighovodja was one of the 12 original prospects selected for BAL Elevate’s 2022 launch, competing last spring with REG (Rwanda), and is in the midst of a second go-around (March-May, 2023) with Côte d’Ivoire’s ABC Fighters... In July, 2022, Ighovodja helped NBA Academy Africa to a first-place finish at the annual NBA Academy Games -- a series of exhibitions featuring top prospects from outside the U.S. Teams from each of the four NBA academies in Australia, India, Mexico and Senegal compete against each other and other elite select teams under the watchful eyes of NCAA coaches and NBA scouts... Ighovodja has also been involved with the Nigerian Basketball Federation. In the summer of 2019, he helped his home country to a bronze medal at the FIBA U16 African Championship, averaging 8.3 points and 7.7 rebounds in seven tournament games.
