Early life and high school career

Faye was born to Demba and Mame Youmane Niang Faye.[2] He is the youngest of five children; his oldest brother, Assane Faye, played basketball at the University of New Hampshire.[2] Faye attended SEED Academy in Dakar, Senegal. In 2002, he was a member of the Senegalese under-18 national basketball team, and in 2004 he was a member of the under-20 national team.[2]

College career

Faye at Georgia Tech in 2006.

Due to a delay in the translation of his transcripts, Faye sat out his first season and was cleared to begin practice with the team in the fall 2006 semester.[2] He started his career as a redshirt freshman in the 2006–07 season, but his initial playing status was in question due to a wrist injury that he sustained in a pickup game over the summer.[3] Faye became a starter when his teammate Lewis Clinch was suspended for the remainder of the 2006–07 season on January 5, 2007.[4] Faye was sidelined again on February 5, 2007 after struggling with flu-like symptoms, which coach Paul Hewitt speculated may have been caused by mononucleosis.[5]

For the 2012–13 season, he joined Ikaros Kallitheas of the Greek Basket League,[7] The next year, he joined Panelefsiniakos and for the 2014–15 season he played for Rethymno.[8]

On August 13, 2015, Faye joined Pallacanestro Varese.[9] He left the team before the end of the season, as he was found positive for doping. He was also suspended for six months from basketball.[10] On July 17, 2016, Faye signed with the Greek team Promitheas Patras.[11] On April 24, 2017, Faye signed with the Lebanese team Sagesse.[12]

On August 4, 2018, he moved to Serbia and signed for Crvena zvezda for the 2018–19 season.[13][14] On June 28, 2019, he re-signed with Crvena zvezda for one more season.[15]
