Kenneth "Kenny" Wilson Gasana[1] (born November 9, 1984) is a Rwandan-American basketball player, who was Rwanda national basketball team's leading scorer at the 2009 FIBA Africa Championship under the name Kenny Gasana.[2] He played for Boise State Broncos men's basketball from 2005 to 2007.[3]

Gasana was born in Rwesamenyo (Kigali Province), Rwanda, but his home town is San Antonio.[4]

Gasana was a late addition to the Rwandan team for the 2009 FIBA Africa Championship after two Rwandan players pulled out of the tournament three weeks before the scheduled opener.[5] Nevertheless, Gasana averaged 18.3 PPG, including a 31-point performance against Morocco, to help lead the Rwandans to a 9th-place finish and their best performance to date at the African Championships.[6]
