Incoming freshman PF Olivier Sarr is on the France U18 squad that has been competing at the FIBA U18 European Championships this week. Interestingly enough, 2018 wing Jaylen Hoard, a top Wake Forest target for the class is on the team as well, but due to an ankle injury he is out for the tournament.
I had the chance to watch Sarr play in the three games of Group Stage so far and was able to garner a few observations about him, and what Wake Forest fans can expect from him this year and beyond.
France went 2-1 in Group D, defeating Latvia and Slovakia, but falling to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
