FORT MYERS, Fla. – FGCU head coach
Pat Chambers announced the signing of Israel "Izzy" Tchoubfong to a National Letter of Intent on Wednesday.
A wing who can score anywhere on the floor, he averaged 17.0 points and 5.2 rebounds over the summer in the Capitol Hoops Summer League playing for Our Lady of Good Counsel. This season, he will suit up for The Bullis School in his native Maryland before heading to Southwest Florida next year.
"Izzy is a tough, physical and versatile wing who can score at all three levels," said FGCU head coach
Pat Chambers. "His ability to defend multiple positions allows him to make an impact on both ends of the floor."
Tchoubfong is the first signee Chambers has announced for the 2027 signing class.
