Thierry Darlan

Draft Notes

Darlan is a well built shooting guard from Senegal who is coming up in the NBA Academy program and looks the part of a potential first round pick.

At 6-6 with awesome length and a strong frame Darlan has clear NBA tools and has been putting up some big time performances, winning MVP at multiple settings.

Darlan has beautiful form on his jumper and can hit off the catch and off the dribble as well. He’s a creative talent on the offensive end with good handles and the ability to breakdown defenders with the dribble. He even shows some lead guard skills and could develop into a primary ball handler in time.
