In the wake of Victor Wembanyama, many French players could take the NBA by storm in the years to come, starting with a nugget who has just exploded in qualifying for the Champions League. Scoring 24 points in Europe at 18 is promising.
In the world of football, France has been seen for years as a training ground, where the biggest clubs on the planet come to learn. In 2009, Karim Benzema, for example, left Olympique Lyonnais to join Real Madrid, where he is today considered a legend. The same goes for Eden Hazard who had a great time at Chelsea after a wonderful time at Lille.
And this is a trajectory that Betclic Elite could soon follow, as more and more young talents catch the eye of NBA scouts and the big EuroLeague teams. A few months ago for example, Victor Wembanyama and Bilal Coulibaly carried the colors of the French championship high by being selected in 1st and 7th position in the Draft!
Tidjane Salaun, the Frenchman who makes scouts dream
This season again, several gems will be followed closely, starting with Tidjane Salaun from Cholet. At 18 years old, the winger already has exceptional qualities, as he showed in a Champions League qualifying match. His ability to create his own shot is particularly promising for his arrival across the Atlantic, where attack is king.

Monstrous match from Tidjane Salaun, announced as a first round of Draft, during the qualifying match for the Champions League with 24 points. The 18-year-old, 2m08 French winger impressed with his ability to make shots and his defensive intensity, all under the eyes of many NBA scouts.
Physically already, Tidjane Salaun is ready for the highest level. If he is not yet the strongest, he is big enough to survive in the professional world and develop his game. And his game, we must talk about it because it is impressive. Whether attacking the basket or behind the arc, he already seems to be making the right choices, and his perfect mechanics should appeal across the Atlantic. Watch out, nugget!
Tidjane Salaun has all the qualities to discover the highest level in the world, but for that we will have to confirm throughout the season. If he is capable of scoring 24 points in the Champions League, there are still reasons to believe in him.
