He rarely saw action, playing only 64 minutes spread out over 11 games during the season.[3] Despite this, the 6 ft 6 in (1.98 m) Kouguère gained a cult following in France through his dunking ability and participation in several slam dunk contests in France.[4][5]
National team career
Kouguère was a member of the Central African Republic national basketball team that finished sixth at the 2009 FIBA Africa Championship, averaging 9.3 PPG.[6]
