Highlights on projected top pick in 2024 draft Alex Sarr!
Globalization in the NBA reaches new heights, and the latest mock analysis for NBA Draft 2024 highlights the unprecedented presence of international talent.
In the latest draft simulation compiled by ESPN's Jonathan Givony, French pivot Alex Sarr remains in the top spot. Playing for the Perth Wildcats in the Australian NBL, Sarr, just 18 years old, averages 9.6 points and 4.4 rebounds. He is commonly recognized for possessing an all-around skill set that stands out in the lottery prospect pool. Sarr, currently sidelined with a hip injury, is a name to watch.
In second place is Zaccharie Risacher, forward of Mincidelice JL Bourg en Bresse. After his stint with LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne in the EuroLeague, Risacher stands as one of the standout players in the EuroCup. With an average of 12.1 points and 3.8 rebounds, he contributes significantly to his team's success, placing them in second place in Group B with 11 wins and 3 losses.
Closing out the top 5 is Nikola Topic, who has climbed the ranks since the last projection. Although currently sidelined due to a long-term injury, Topic moved from Mega MIS Belgrade in the ABA League to Crvena Zvezda Meridianbet Belgrade in the EuroLeague, immediately showing flashes of his talent.
In addition to the top three Europeans, two other prospects from the continent stand out in the Top 10. Cholet Basket's Tidjane Salaun ranks sixth, while Matas Buzelis, once considered for the top spot, ranks tenth.
