The Basketball Africa League (BAL) hosted a combine in Paris, France on January 15-16 at The One Ball Training Center ahead of their third season that is scheduled to tip off in Dakar, Senegal on March 11. Thirty players from around the world participated in the two-day scouting event.
Former Utah Jazz coach Quin Snyder served as the combine camp director, and he was joined by his former player Ed Davis. Davis, who played 12 seasons in the NBA, talked with HoopsHype in a wide-ranging conversation about his experience at the combine, his career, young stars in the NBA, and of course, Victor Wembanyama.
