Tidjane Saluan of Cholet Basket in France has declared as an Early Entry Candidate for the 2024 NBA Draft. Salaun won’t turn 19 until mid-August, making him one of the younger prospects in this year’s draft class.
In 48 games for Cholet Basket this season, the 6-foot-9 forward has averaged 9.6 points and 3.9 rebounds in 23.3 minutes per game. Salaun has shot 40.4% from the field, including 33% on three-pointers. The expectation is that Salaun’s offensive game will round to complement his already good defense.
Salaun is projected to be lottery pick by most draft experts.
