Buzz Sport exclusively confirmed, that Mam Jaiteh has signed a two-year deal with Dubai BC, finalizing his move from AS Monaco, where he had a one-year contract extension in 2024. The 30-year-old French center joins a growing Dubai roster that includes McKinley Wright IV, Mfiondu Kabengele and Aleksa Avramovic.
Career Impact
Jaiteh, a 2.08m center, averaged 7.5 points and 5.4 rebounds in 14 minutes across 39 EuroLeague games with Monaco in 2024-25. Known for his rebounding and efficiency, he brings experience from his time with Virtus Bologna, where he won the EuroCup in 2022.

Dubai’s Growing Roster
Dubai BC, set to play at the 17,000-seat Coca-Cola Arena, are building a competitive squad under coach Jurica Golemac. With Jaiteh, Wright IV, Kabengele, and Avramovic, they aim to make an impact in their three-year ABA League stint starting in 2024-25, per earlier reports, and compete against teams like Crvena Zvezda, who are also targeting players like Carsen Edwards. This signing underscores Dubai’s ambition to establish themselves in European basketball.
