法国巴黎 - 12月30日:扎卡里·里沙舍(Zaccharie Risacher)在2023年12月30日巴黎雅高酒店竞技场举行的全明星赛中代表法国队运球
编者按: 马刺队在6月26日的NBA选秀中,将拥有两张前十顺位的选秀权,这是球队历史上首次拥有两张前十顺位选秀权,他们拥有第4顺位和第8顺位的选秀权。如果不是因为去年马刺队以状元签选中了维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama),这两张选秀权中的任何一张都会是球队自1997年以来最高的选秀顺位。以下是对马刺队可能在这些位置上考虑的球员的系列简介:
随着维克托·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)成为2023届选秀状元,去年的NBA选秀盛会是法国人绝对关注的大事。
2024年的选秀预计也将在巴黎掀起热潮,但原因略有不同。
诚然,今年的选秀球员中没有像文班亚马(Wembanyama)那样能改变球队命运的天才,无论是美国本土球员还是国际球员。然而,三位法国球员可能会在前15顺位被选中,其中两位有望加入文班亚马(Wembanyama)的行列,成为状元签。
亚历克斯·萨尔(Alex Sarr)或扎卡里·里沙舍(Zaccharie Risacher)都有可能成为第二个在NBA选秀中以状元签被选中的法国球员。蒂迪安·萨伦(Tidjane Salaun)被认为是潜在的乐透区末尾球员。
如果里沙舍(Risacher)在亚特兰大、华盛顿和休斯顿之后,仍然没有被选中,不要惊讶,马刺队可能会认真考虑这位19岁的侧翼球员。
身高6英尺9英寸的里沙舍(Risacher)拥有足够的身材,能够在NBA级别担任侧翼球员。里沙舍(Risacher)被认为是选秀中最优秀的接球投篮球员之一,他作为组织者的能力也有所提升,他和文班亚马(Wembanyama)的法国组合将非常引人注目。
里沙舍(Risacher)并不一定被认为是未来的全明星球员——今年选秀中的任何人都没有被认为是未来的全明星球员——但他足够出色,不需要太多就可以看到他成为一名高水平的角色球员。
扎卡里·里沙舍(Zaccharie Risacher)
在今年这样的选秀中,用第4顺位选中他并非坏事。
作为法国明星球员斯蒂芬妮·里沙舍(Stephanie Risacher)的儿子,年轻的里沙舍(Risacher)在法国职业生涯的开始就效力于ASVEL,这支球队由马刺名人堂球员托尼·帕克(Tony Parker)拥有,也是文班亚马(Wembanyama)效力过的球队。
他可能在法国打了最后一季,效力于JL Bourg,帮助球队晋级季后赛,并成为法国历史上第二年轻的荣获欧洲杯新星奖的球员。
如果别的什么都没有,里沙舍(Risacher)至少可以投篮,这项技能可以填补马刺队阵容中最明显的漏洞之一。在本赛季的法国联赛中,他的三分球命中率为43%,这个数据将会是2023-24赛季马刺队最高的。

针对里沙舍(Risacher)的问题在于,他在整个法国联赛的季后赛中打出了最好的表现,这让他在选秀榜上迅速上升。
他很有可能被亚特兰大以状元签选中。如果老鹰队放弃,让奇才队和火箭队也放弃里沙舍(Risacher)可能要求过高。
如果马刺队非常想将里沙舍(Risacher)和文班亚马(Wembanyama)配对,他们可以考虑将他们的两个首轮签打包交易,从而向上移动。
否则,马刺队可能会被迫看着里沙舍(Risacher)被其他球队选中,他们双重法国梦想破灭。这就是生活。

Spurs draft prospect: The case for Zaccharie Risacher
PARIS, FRANCE - DECEMBER 30: Zaccharie Risacher of Team France runs with the ball during the All Star Game at AccorHotels Arena on December 30, 2023 in Paris, France.
Editor’s Note: The Spurs enter the June 26 NBA draft armed with a pair of top 10 picks for the first time in team history, holding the No. 4 and No. 8 selections. Had it not been for last year, when the Spurs famously nabbed Victor Wembanyama first overall, either of those picks would have marked the club’s highest draft slots since 1997. This is the next in a series of profiles of prospects the Spurs might consider at those spots:
With Victor Wembanyama at the head of the 2023 draft class, last year’s NBA Pick-A-Palooza was a decidedly big deal in France.
The 2024 draft is set to be all the rage in Paris as well, for a somewhat different reason.
True, there is no franchise-changing talent like Wembanyama among this year’s crop of prospects, neither American-born nor international. However, three Frenchmen could be drafted among the top 15 picks, including a pair in the running to join Wembanyama and go No. 1 overall.
Either Alex Sarr or Zaccharie Risacher could conceivably become the second Frenchman selected with the first pick in the NBA draft. Tidjane Salaun is viewed as a potential late lottery pick.
If Risacher falls past Atlanta, Washington and Houston with first three picks, don’t be surprised if the Spurs look long and hard at the 19-year-old swingman.
The 6-foot-9 Risacher comes with sufficient size to man the wing at the NBA level. Considered one of the best-catch-and-shoot players in the draft, Risacher has improved as a facilitator and would create an intriguing French connection with Wembanyama.
Risacher does not necessarily project as a future All-Star — nobody in this draft pool does necessarily — but he does enough things well that it doesn’t take much to see him as a high-end role player going forward.
Zaccharie Risacher
In a draft such as this one, that’s not a bad play with the No. 4 pick.
The son of French star Stephanie Risacher, the younger Risacher began his professional career in France playing for ASVEL, the club owned by Spurs Hall of Famer Tony Parker and one for which Wembanyama also matriculated.
He spent what will likely be his final season in France playing for JL Bourg, helping to lead that team to the playoffs and becoming the second-youngest player in French history to be named a EuroCup Rising Star.
If nothing else, Risacher can shoot the ball, a skill that would fill one of the most glaring holes on the Spurs’ roster. He made 43% of his 3-point tries in France this season, a mark that would have ranked first on the 2023-24 Spurs.

The trouble with targeting Risacher? He has been playing his best basketball throughout the French League playoffs, shooting up draft boards.
He is a real threat to go No. 1 overall to Atlanta. If the Hawks pass, it might be too much to ask for the Wizards and Rockets to let Risacher slide as well.
If the Spurs fall in love with the idea of pairing Risacher with Wembanyama, they could look to package their two first-round picks and move up.
Otherwise, the Spurs might be forced to watch Risacher go elsewhere, their double French dreams dashed. C’est la vie.
