One of the top players in the NBA's 2025 draft class, French guard Nolan Traore, has spurned offers from around the world to remain in his home country, he told ESPN.
One of the top players in the NBA's 2025 draft class, French guard Nolan Traore, has spurned offers from around the world to remain in his home country, he told ESPN on Saturday.
"It was cool to have all these programs interested in me," Traore said."I don't take that for granted. It was a reward for all the work I've put in. I was happy to have all these options, but the possibility of staying close to my family was also important. They can visit me, and I can go home easily."
Traore helped guide Saint-Quentin to the Pro A playoffs in its debut season in the first division, posting 25 points and seven assists in his final game against EuroLeague squad ASVEL. After making a midseason jump from the third division, he ranked as a top-10 scorer and the second-best passer in France's Pro A on a per-minute basis competing against grown men.
"At first I was very surprised when they called me," Traore said."But the goal is to be selected on the team. I want to show the coaching staff what I can do and that I can add something to help them win."
