Gora Camara (born April 12, 2001) is a Senegalese professional basketball player for Universo Treviso Basket of the Italian Lega Basket Serie A (LBA). Due to his Italian upbringing, he is considered a "homegrown player" in the domestic championship.
After having played in the youth teams of Virtus Bologna for several years, Camara was added to the first team in the 2018–19 season, during which he won the Basketball Champions League.[1]
In the 2019–20 season, Camara was loaned to Junior Casale Monferrato, a team of Italy's second league, Serie A2. Camara played in Monferrato also in the following season, until 2021.[2] In the 2021–22 season, he was loaned to Pesaro of the LBA; along with Pesaro, he reached the national playoffs. However, Pesaro was ousted 3–0 by Virtus in the first round.[3]
On 3 August 2022, Camara returned to Virtus Bologna, where he played in the LBA and the EuroLeague.[4] On 29 September 2022, after having ousted Olimpia Milano in the semifinals, Virtus won its third Supercup, defeating 72–69 Banco di Sardegna Sassari and achieving a back-to-back, following the 2021 trophy.[5] However, despite good premises Virtus ended the EuroLeague season at the 14th place, thus it did not qualify for the playoffs.[6] Moreover, the team was defeated in the Italian Basketball Cup final by Brescia. In June, after having ousted 3–0 both Brindisi and Tortona, Virtus was defeated 4–3 by Olimpia Milan in the national finals, following a series which was widely regarded among the best in the latest years of Italian basketball.[7][8]
On July 14, 2023, Camara was loaned once again to Universo Treviso Basket of the Lega Basket Serie A.
