The 2024 NBA Draft did not have a clear-cut No. 1 pick, but France once again showcased its talent for the second year in a row. Following Victor Wembanyama’s selection as the top pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, four French players were picked in the first round of the 2024 Draft. Zaccharie Risacher went first overall to the Atlanta Hawks, while Alex Sarr was picked second by the Washington Wizards.
College standouts like Reed Sheppard from Kentucky, Donovan Clingan from UConn, and Zach Edey from Purdue were also selected early in the first round. One surprise pick was SEC Player of the Year Dalton Knecht from Tennessee, who was chosen 17th overall by the Los Angeles Lakers. Analysis for all 30 first-round picks can be found on various platforms.
For the first time, the NBA Draft is being held over two days, with the second round scheduled for 4 p.m. ET on Thursday. Fans can watch the draft live on ABC or ESPN and stream it on platforms like Fubo or ESPN+. The full draft order and results can also be found online, along with detailed analysis from Yahoo Sports on each of the 58 picks.
