The man who never misses the hoop: Kenny Gasana (33 PTS / 7 REB)
Kenneth "Kenny" Wilson Gasana (born November 9, 1984) is an Rwandan-American basketball player, who was Rwanda national basketball team's leading scorer at the 2009 FIBA Africa Championship under the name Kenny Gasana. He played for Boise State Broncos men's basketball from 2005 to 2007.
Gasana was born in Rwesamenyo (Kigali Province), Rwanda, but his home town is San Antonio.
Gasana was a late addition to the Rwandan team for the 2009 FIBA Africa Championship after two Rwandan players pulled out of the tournament three weeks before the scheduled opener. Nevertheless, Gasana averaged 18.3 PPG, including a 31-point performance against Morocco, to help lead the Rwandans to a 9th-place finish and their best performance to date at the African Championships.
