Washington Wizards fans will officially get a chance to watch two of their team’s budding stars play in EuroBasket later this month.
Wizards wing Bilal Coulibaly and forward Alex Sarr were selected to France’s final 12-man roster for the EuroBasket tournament, which begins in late August and extends through September.
Coulibaly has started every international friendly match in the lead-up to EuroBasket and has played well. The 21-year-old scored a France-career-high 13 points on 5-for-7 shooting in the team’s comeback victory over Spain on Saturday, flashing his 3 & D prowess as he co-led a 16-2 third-quarter run.
Sarr’s best showing came in France’s opening friendly match, scoring 19 points on 7-for-10 shooting. The 20-year-old forward will likely come off the bench for France once tournament play officially begins.
France kicks off EuroBasket on Aug. 28 against Belgium.
