Tigers add Kazadi for 2025-26
Dalhousie Tigers men’s basketball head coach Rick Plato is pleased to announce the commitment of Junior Kazadi for the 2025-26 season.
Hailing from Longueuil, Quebec, the 6’3 point guard played the last three seasons with Dawson College in the Réseau du Sport Étudiant du Québec (RSEQ) Division 1. Kazadi was a key contributor to the teams 2023 Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) national silver medal, 2023 RSEQ provincial championship and 2024 RSEQ provincial silver medal.
“I’m excited to be suiting up for the Tigers.” Says Kazadi. “The program has a winning basketball culture, and I’m looking forward to competing, improving, and learning every day.”
Kazadi will be studying science at Dalhousie.
“Junior will immediately add a much needed injection of physicality, defensive tenaciousness to the guard position.” Says Plato. “He can play and defend multiple positions, adding to his impact at both ends of the court.”
The Tigers finished their season with a 6-13 record, outside of a playoff position.
