Few French people on deck this night, but still an important event since the young Armel Traoré became the fourteenth Frenchman to set foot on an NBA floor this season, playing at the same time his very first minutes of his career in the Great League . Champagne, while waiting for the little brother!
The results of the night
Victor Wembanyama
The Spurs left him to rest following a shock received the day before against the Lakers. First missed match of the season for Vico, hoping there aren’t too many more. For what ? Because quite honestly it’s hard to find a reason to watch Spurs when he’s not there. Facts.
Sidy Cissoko
2 rebounds in 6 minutes for the young French guard, who still cannot find his place in the Texan rotation. On the verge of sending a threatening letter asking the Spurs to play him in the G League under penalty of reprisals.
Tidjane Salaün
3 points and 2 rebounds in 10 minutes for the young French winger, who still cannot find his place in Charlotte’s rotation. On the verge of sending a threatening letter asking the Hornets to play him in the G League under penalty of reprisals.
Moussa Diabaté
He continues his incredible start to the season and he is clearly the best Frenchman in Charlotte, that had to be announced. 12 points, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks for Mouss Diab, and a prestigious victory in Milwaukee. So, we can say that his evening was a success.
Armel Traore
Returning at the end of the first quarter (with LeBron, it’s bad), and leaving at the start of the second, Armel Traoré had time to take a rebound on a shot from Brandon Boston Jr., to send an air-ball to 3- points and fouling Brandon Boston Jr., still him. Regardless of the content, Armel is officially an NBA player since that night, and officially the one who made so much talk about Brandon Boston Jr. That’s it!
Killian Hayes
5 rebounds and 6 assists, very good, but 0/5 shooting and 5 lost balls. The Capital City Go-Go and its star Andrew Funk were perhaps too high a step for Kiki, this sentence is terribly terrible
