Tidjane Salaun, a player from Cholet Basket in France, has announced his decision to enter the 2024 NBA Draft as an Early Entry Candidate. Despite his young age, with Salaun not turning 19 until mid-August, he is considered one of the younger prospects in this year’s draft class.
Playing in 48 games for Cholet Basket this season, the 6-foot-9 forward has posted averages of 9.6 points and 3.9 rebounds in 23.3 minutes per game. Salaun has shot 40.4% from the field, with a 33% success rate on three-pointers. It is anticipated that Salaun’s offensive skills will improve to complement his already strong defensive play.
Many draft analysts are predicting Salaun to be a lottery pick in the upcoming draft.
