High school and college
Banks starred at Westinghouse High School in Chicago. He was named Chicago Sun Times Player of the Year as a senior in 2000, ahead of other area standouts such as Dwyane Wade of Richards High School and Eddy Curry of Thornwood High School.[1] Banks led Westinghouse to the 2000 state championship game, where he scored 22 points, but his team lost to West Aurora High School.[2]
After graduating high school, Banks went on to play for the University of Illinois at Chicago. He redshirted his first season because of academic problems,[3] then led his team in scoring (13.6 points) in 2001–02.[4] Over the next three seasons, Banks earned three All-Horizon League First Team nods and was a five-time Horizon League Player of the Week. As a senior, he broke UIC's career scoring record, ending his collegiate career with 2,097 points.[5] His point guard at Westinghouse and UIC was Martell Bailey.
Professional career
Banks began his professional career in May 2005 with the Nebraska Cranes of the United States Basketball League.[6] After averaging 17.1 points per game and winning All-Rookie Team honors, he signed with Besançon BCD of the French Pro-B Division,[7] and he was named the Foreign Player's MVP of that league in 2006.[8] He then played summer league basketball with the Chicago Bulls,[9] but did not make the regular season team.
From 2006 to 2007, Banks was a member of SLUC Nancy of France's Pro-A Division. He represented the team at the 2006 French League All-Star Game, where he scored 12 points for the foreign players' team.[10] Banks then signed with Maccabi Rishon LeZion of Israel. During the 2007–2008 season in the Israeli league, Banks averaged 14 points per game, and posted a season high of 36 against Hapoel Holon.[11]
Banks signed with Entente Orléanaise in 2008.[12] In 2010, he joined CSP Limoges.[13] In July 2011 he returned to Entente Orléanaise for yet another season.[14] In 2012, he signed with Türk Telekom Ankara, and he averaged 7.3 points and 2.0 assists in four Turkish League games. On December 4, 2012, he signed a short deal (until January 5, 2013) with Élan Chalon.[15] In March 2013 he signed with Liège Basket.[16] In July 2013, he signed with STB Le Havre.[17]
