Sene was born in Thies. Aged 20, he was drafted 10th overall by the Seattle SuperSonics in the 2006 NBA Draft. On January 11, 2007, after having received little playing time, he was assigned to the NBA Development League's Idaho Stampede.[2]
In the 2007–08 season, Sene received an honorable mention for the All-NBA Development League teams, after playing in 28 games for the Stampede (starting in five), with averages of 12.4 points, 9.0 rebounds and 1.7 blocks in 28.2 minutes per game, with highs of 30 points, 18 rebounds and seven blocks. He continued to have little impact with the Sonics (13 games, 62 minutes).
On February 19, 2009, Sene was waived by the Sonics, now named Oklahoma City Thunder.[3] He was signed by the New York Knicks on April 9.[4]
On July 31, 2009, after only one appearance, Sene was waived by the Knicks, later moving to France with Hyères-Toulon Var Basket.[5]
