Mildon Roy Ambres (born September 12, 1984) is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for Al Geish Army of the Egyptian Basketball Premier League. He played college basketball at Southern Miss and Southern Nazarene.
He was voted the NBA D-League Most Improved Player by coaches at the conclusion of the 2010 season.
His father, Milton, who played with Southern University and was a high school coach for 26 years, introduced Mildon to the game when he was seven. Ambres lettered three years in basketball at Opelousas High School in Opelousas, Louisiana. As a senior, he averaged 21.2 points, 14 rebounds and 5 assists per game. He was named Honorable Mention Class 4A All-State, as well as lettering in track and football. He chose to play at LSU.
He redshirted his freshman season at LSU during the 2002–03 season. During the fall semester, he transferred, citing a lack of playing time. Ambres chose Southern Miss and sat the 2004–05 season due to NCAA transfer rules.
He averaged 7.7 points and 5 rebounds per game his sophomore year in 2004–05. He did, however, score a career-high 21 points at Marquette on February 5, adding 8 rebounds in the 72-81 loss. His junior year was not much better, as he averaged 6.4 points and 4.1 rebounds per game. He did not see eye-to-eye with his new coach, Larry Eustachy, and transferred to Southern Nazarene University, who played in NAIA Division I at the time.
