England native signs to continue career with Knights

North Platte, Neb. – Emmanuel Oladeru, of London, England, signed to continue his athletic career with the North Platte Community College men's basketball team as part of their 2022 signing class.

The 6-foot-8 forward averaged 16 points and nine rebounds per game last season for Brunel University in London. His talents on the court propelled the Hawks to an Academy Basketball League national championship, EYBL Central Division Group C championship, and a National Cup championship in 2020.

"It was clear the emphasis is hard work and winning," said Oladeru. "As a player with high aspirations, I feel like North Platte will push me to become the best version of myself on and off the court."

Emmanuel is the son of Sunny Oladeru and Risikat Olubodun.
