Career

After Mbassa had only started to play basketball in terms of performance in 1994, he came to the basketball league with the Opel Skyliners from Frankfurt am Main in 1999 via stints at TSV Speyer and BG Koblenz . In three games he was given a total of three minutes of playing time as a junior player. He then played for the second division USC Freiburg until 2005, before switching to league rivals BV Chemnitz 99 , which he left again after two seasons in 2007 and moved to the Giants from Nördlingen . With the Giants, the promotion from the ProA to the basketball league succeeded, so that Mbassa played another season in the top German division. He was used about half of the games and came to a playing time of just under nine minutes per game. After the Nördlinger withdrew from the BBL, Mbassa returned to the Palatinate, where he was born, and played with the Saar-Palatinate Braves in the ProA until 2011 .

In May 2011, the former second division team BIS Baskets from Speyer announced that Mbassa will be the team's new head coach for the 2011/2012 season in the Regionalliga. Mbassa ended his active career and received a one-year contract in Speyer. His team was able to finish the season in third place in the Regionalliga Südwest. After a year he left the club and became assistant to the new head coach Tony Garbelotto at USC Heidelberg . For the 2013/2014 season, Mbassa returned to Speyer and took over as coach again. In 2016 he had to relegate Speyer from the 2nd Bundesliga ProB . In the 2018/19 season he led the team to win the championship title in the Regionalliga Südwest.
