Professional career

Before signing with Olympique Antibes for the 2009–10 season, Kouguère played for fellow French League team BCM Gravelines. He rarely saw action, playing only 64 minutes spread out over 11 games during the season.[3] Despite this, the 6 ft 6 in (1.98 m) Kouguère gained a cult following in France through his dunking ability and participation in several slam dunk contests in France.[4][5]

On 23 September 2021, Kouguere signed with Belgian club Phoenix Brussels of the BNXT League.[6]

In October 2022, Kouguere played for Bangui Sporting Club in the 2023 BAL qualification.[7] He made his debut on 12 October against Espoir.[8]

National team career

Kouguère was a member of the Central African Republic national basketball team that finished sixth at the 2009 FIBA Africa Championship, averaging 9.3 PPG.[9]
