The full rosters for the California Classic Summer League have just been released. This year, we find seven French players in the preliminary stage of the Summer League, an opportunity for everyone to show themselves, prove themselves for the newcomers, and for us, it even allows us to see old faces again.
- Armel Traore (Los Angeles Lakers)
- Sidy Cissoko (San Antonio Spurs)
- Mohamed Diarra (Los Angeles Lakers)
- Lucas Dufeal (Sacramento Kings – Golden 1 Center)
- Yves Pons (Sacramento Kings – Chase Center)
- Neal Sako (Miami Heat)
- Tidjane Salaün (Charlotte Hornets)
Among the NBA players still under contract, we find only Sidy Cissoko in the list. We hope to see some nice progress from Sidy, and with Victor Wembanyama being held elsewhere, Sidy will for once have the opportunity to be the French reu-sta in San Antonio. Yves Ponswho played eight NBA games a few seasons ago, is making his return to North America with the Sacramento Kings. Of course, we are also looking forward to seeing the first baskets of Tidjane Salaün under the Hornets jersey. Among those who were not lucky enough to be drafted, we will find Armel Traore who really didn’t get far in the second round, as well as Mohamed Diarraboth wearing the Los Angeles Lakers jersey.
Among those who will be keen to show themselves, Neal Sako (ASVEL) who will play a few matches with the Miami Heat, but also Lucas Dufeal that we saw this season on the Vichy-Clermont side last season and who will also wear the colors of the Sacramento Kings. A little specificity for the Kings, they will present two different rosters at this California Classic Summer League. Lucas Dufeal will play for the Golden 1 Center while Yves Pons will be on the Chase Center side.
