At the end of the week, the United States will discover Zaccharie Risacher since the 17-year-old French winger will participate in the Hoop Summit, the annual meeting organized by Nike which pits the United States U19 team (with Bronny James this year) against a world selection of the best U19 players.
Expected very high in the 2024 Draft, the son of Stéphane Risacher will have another opportunity to show himself since Asvel has decided to imitate Boulogne-Levallois and Victor Wembanyama with an “American tour” next school year.
This is revealed by Tony Parker in the columns of Progressand Asvel will play two friendly matches in Las Vegas on September 7 and 9, 2023. “We’ve accepted the G League’s offer to tour the US next summer and expose it as much as possible” explains the president of Asvel and new Hall Of Famer. “We will go two weeks to the United States. We will start with a training camp in San Antonio and we will play two matches in Las Vegas after, on September 7 and 9. »
Unlike the Mets 92 last October, the Villeurbannais will not yet have taken over the championship, and these will therefore be preseason meetings. On the G-League side, the championship usually resumes in early November, and it is not certain that the numbers of Asvel’s opponents are really finalized.
