Our 2022 NBA Draft scouting report series continues with a deep look at Huge Besson, a 21-year-old guard out of the NBL via France.
A couple of years ago a young guard named LaMelo Ball traveled overseas to Australia, set historical numbers with the Illawarra Hawks in the NBL before being selected with the No. 3 overall selection in the 2020 NBA Draft. Since then, Ball has shown the potential, the flash and the pizzaz that he showed in Australia, which proved to be a great springboard for his NBA career.
Similarly, RJ Hampton entered the draft in 2020 from the NBL and the New Zealand Breakers before he was selected 24th overall, currently playing with the Orlando Magic.
