Kyshawn George should become the third Swiss to play in the NBA. It will be on the night of Thursday to Friday with the Washington Wizards facing the Boston Celtics, reigning champions.
He had announced since elementary school that he would be the third Swiss to play in the NBA. Kyshawn George made this childhood dream come true. This confidence in him even emanates over the phone. The tone is set, without great flights.
Drafted by the New York Knicks in 24th position last June, the Chablaisien was immediately transferred to Washington. So what has happened since that crazy evening? “I went straight to Washington“, he confided to Keystone-ATS. “I stayed there for a month while playing in the Summer League. After that I returned to Switzerland for ten days before leaving for the USA with a camp in Los Angeles, then stays in Washington and Toronto..”
Integrating a basic five in the NBA is really not an easy thing. Clint Capela had to go through the D-League, now G-League, before winning in Houston. George should not experience the same journey. Very good in preseason, Montheysan is one of the players expected to compensate for the injury absence of Malcolm Brogdon.
