Despite showing good efforts first in Spain and then in France to take down Sergio Scariolo’s national team on the road to FIBA EuroBasket 2025, the French national team is looking for reinforcements. Already knowing they couldn’t count on Victor Wembanyama, Rudy Gobert, Mathias Lessort, and Moustapha Fall for the most anticipated event of the summer, Vincent Poirier will also be missed. In search of a new center to add to their rotation, head coach Frederic Fauthoux shared that they tried to involve the 23-year-old Moussa Diabate, currently in the NBA with the Charlotte Hornets. However, as reported by Be Basket, the player declined the offer coming from the French national team after consulting with his entourage to “focus on his upcoming NBA season”.
Guard Frank Ntilikina, forward Ousmane Dieng and forward Moussa Diabate were cut from the French national team roster ahead of the EuroBasket, the French Federation announced. The roster of France now has 14 players: Isaia Cordinier (Virtus Segafredo Bologna), Bilal Coulibaly (Washington Wizards), Sylvain Francisco (Zalgiris), Nadir Hifi (Paris), Jaylen Hoard (Maccabi Playtika Tel Aviv), Mouhammadou Jaiteh (Dubai), Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot (Baskonia), Theo Maledon (Real Madrid), Elie Okobo (AS Monaco), Vincent Poirier (Anadolu Efes), Zaccharie Risacher (Atlanta Hawks), Alex Sarr (Washington Wizards), Matthew Strazel (AS Monaco) and captain Guerschon Yabusele (New York Knicks).
