Astou Ndour

Ndour joined the youth system of Gran Canaria in 2009. She also played in the Junior Spanish Championship that year. Ndour became a naturalized Spanish citizen in 2011. She was a part of the Spanish youth team that won the silver medal at the 2011 FIBA Under-19 World Championship for Women where she nearly averaged a double-double.[3][5] As a member of the Spanish Youth National Team, Ndour's teams always won a medal in each tournament she played, including the bronze medal at the Under-18 European Championship for Women.[5]

Ndour started to play with the Spain women's national basketball team on 2014 when she was 20 years old, although she couldn't play the 2014 FIBA World Championship for Women, since Spain opted to take Sancho Lyttle, and FIBA Regulations establish that only one naturalized player per roster can participate in national teams competitions.

In 2015, she was part of the Spanish roster that won the Bronze medal at the EuroBasket Women 2015 in Hungary and Romania. Ndour was acquired from the San Antonio Stars by the Chicago Sky in exchange for Clarissa Dos Santos in February 2017.[6] In May 2017, Ndour was suspended by the Sky after not reporting to the team.[7]

In 2018 she signed for Turkish team Çukurova Basketbol[8] and in 2019 for Russian team Dynamo Kursk.

Ndour played for the San Antonio Stars in the 2014 and 2016 WNBA seasons. She was traded to the Chicago Sky in 2017, and played for that team in the 2018 and 2019 seasons.[6] In 2019, she averaged 17.5 minutes and 6.8 points per game in the regular season and 25.5 minutes and 16.5 points in the playoffs as a starter.[9] Ending the season as a restricted free agent, she was re-signed and traded to the Dallas Wings before the 2020 season.[2]
