According to French media reports, following Venbanyama, Zachary Risache is also preparing to enter the NBA.
Born in 2005, the latter is currently 18 years old and 2.06m tall and is a technical striker.
Rissacher comes from a sporting family, and his father is former French national team player Stéphane Risacher.
The latter played with France at the 2000 Sydney Olympics and eventually won silver in futsal.
In 2020, Risacher, who was only 15 years old at the time, was selected by the Asvel Basket youth program in France.
He has since played for Lnb Espoirs, averaging 12.5 points and 4.4 rebounds last season.
During last year's Under-17 World Cup for France, Rischer was the outside core of the team.
Against Japan, he scored 13 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, helping the team to slaughter opponents by 37 points.
Against New Zealand, he scored a team-high 19 points and eventually helped the team win the bronze medal in the tournament.
As a striker, Rissacher has a maturity that doesn't match his age.
Scouts rated him as a player whose size and skill are perfectly combined and whose style of play makes him feel comfortable.
Risache can drip and shoot, he can also score without the ball, and he has a killer move for a stop-and-shoot jumper.
On the defensive end, he was very aggressive when rushing for rebounds in the front court, and he had a good sense of defense.
During his time at the Under-17s, Rischer averaged 1.4 front boards, 0.7 breaks, and 1.1 blocks per game in an average of 21 minutes of playing time.
On the whole, in addition to being too thin and weak, Risache does not have much shortcomings at present.
His athletic talent, physical coordination, and fluency are easily reminiscent of the early Ingrams.
Currently, Rischer is considered a top five favorite in 2024, which is next year's draft.
Earlier, he had already left Tony Parker's Assvel club and his next step would be to enter Ligue 1 to try the adult league early.
Brothers, are you bullish on this type of striker?
