NIL Plus Group is proud to welcome Bilal Fye, a 6’9” (205 cm) forward from Bremen, Germany, to its family of client athletes. Bilal is one of the most promising prospects of his recruiting class in North German youth basketball, and he has a clear path toward NCAA basketball in 2027 or 2028.

Player profile

  • Position: Forward
  • Height: 6’9” (205 cm)
  • Hometown: Bremen, Germany
  • Club: EWE Baskets Oldenburg (NBBL U19), multi-year agreement
  • NCAA entry: Class of 2027, with the option of Class of 2028

From Bremen to one of Germany’s top youth programs

Bilal developed under the mentorship of Coach Dejan, president of Basketball Akademie Bremen Süd. Under his guidance, Bilal grew from a young talent into one of the standout prospects in the north of Germany.

His results so far:

  • 2024 German JBBL (U16) champion with Oldenburg, part of a title run of 20 straight wins
  • Rotation player for Baskets Juniors Oldenburg in the 2025/26 NBBL (U19), reaching the playoff quarterfinals
  • Represented Oldenburg in the 2026 Youth Basketball Champions League
  • Multiple double-digit scoring games against top NBBL opponents

The next chapter

This summer, Bilal signed a multi-year agreement with EWE Baskets Oldenburg. In the 2026/27 season he will play for the club’s NBBL (U19) team, developing inside one of Germany’s leading youth basketball programs.

Bilal will have the choice to enter the NCAA with the Class of 2027. He will also consider the Class of 2028, which would give him the chance to gain senior basketball experience during the 2027/28 season first.

How Bilal is doing

Bilal earned real minutes in a strong U19 league last season. In 12 NBBL (U19) games for Oldenburg in 2025/26 he averaged 5.2 points and 2.3 rebounds (ScoutBasketball), and in the 2026 Youth Basketball Champions League, one of Europe’s top youth club competitions, he added 4.0 points and 3.3 rebounds per game (FIBA). The 2026/27 NBBL season has just started, and it’s his chance to take on a bigger role.

Why college coaches should watch

Bilal brings high-major athleticism: size, length, explosiveness and a motor that stand out on film. With the development and experience ahead of him, we expect him to become a major NCAA prospect.

Thank you to Coach Dejan and Basketball Akademie Bremen Süd, and to EWE Baskets Oldenburg, for their role in Bilal’s development. Welcome to the family, Bilal!
